Floating down the River to Brataslava

I haven’t posted for about 3 days for two reasons. Firstly the wifi has been impossible we have been sailing along the border between between Hungary and Slovakia and this makes things very difficult. Now we have just left Brataslava and sailed into Austria and we are up and running again. The second reason is that this is a cycling website and we are yet to get on our bikes.  However in the next two weeks before we actually get on bikes I will keep you up to date mainly by photos

We will be pretty comfortable in this cabin

Leo WoodlandIs that the Hungarian parliament building sliding out of the picture to the left? It's a modified copy of the London parliament, I remember. I also remember being stopped from riding past it, though others seem not to have been. That's the problem, of course, with looking like a shady anarchist

Breakfast is pretty impressive but we are going to have to cycle a long way if we keep eating like this

We visited a couple of wineries with charming old cellars tunnelled underground

Leo WoodlandAh yes, as I said in another comment, it's based on the design of the parliament building in London, I think
