The past two days have been busy with more than thirty kilometres walked as we wandered through the cities of Bratislava and Budapest. Bratislava was a city that was rough around the edges, but we’ll worth the time spent there. A contrast to other cities we have visited was the fact that so many statues featured women.

In Budapest, we were surprised by a sense of pride and grandeur, a place of culture that was unique. It was both European and reflective of the Magyar history, and Asian history. Like other European cities, statues of Nude males were found in abundance. Even with this statue of a nude man, the woman was wearing clothing.

We made it to Sopron with no difficulty and we’re soon busy with finding a late breakfast and taking too many photos. Five hours later, we checked into our apartment where it time to freshen up with a shower, shave, and clean clothing before heading out for a final three hours on activity, including a supper out with five others who will begin the European Peace Walk tomorrow. Now, it’s time to get our bags repacked in anticipation of a twenty-five kilometre hike into Austria.
