BUDAPEST


We left Prague the next morning and drove southeast towards Budapest. Between the Czech Republic and Hungary we drove through Slovakia, where we got a ticket for not driving with our lights on, and Austria, where we stopped for a quick dip in Lake Neusiedlersee. 

It was late in the day by the time we checked into our hostel, and not long after that we set out on foot to explore the city. We walked south along the Danube River and made our way towards the Citadella - an old fortress on a hilltop overlooking the city. We missed the sunset, but made it up in time to watch the city lights come to life as daylight faded. We zigzagged on the way back to the hostel, and stopped for a few beers before calling it a night.

One day in Hungary. It was another typical quick stopover during the Mongol Rally. Next up, Romania...
