    I preferred the Danube to the more industrial Rhine as we met people along the Danube.

    Notables were:

    1. The South African couple in their 70s that were, for their their first cycling trip, doing the Thames from start to finish, the Rhine from finish to start, and the Danube from start to foniz

    2. The 19 yr old Canadian girl from Montreal who was cycling and camping solo from England to Istanbul. No caravan parks, just door knocked and asked people if she could pitch her tent on the front lawn. Not 1 refusal in 3 months.

    3. The 4 Germans from our Linz hotel who had a beer at every pub they cycled past .
    Absolute legends

    So this is how predictable we have become;
    With DP so immobile we can't walk far for our clinically and scientifically approved rehydration program. 100m to a nice pub with nobody smoking !!!!!! Another 100m to our only choice of restaurant, a Slovakian traditional. What do we order, the Sichuan duck and the .Sichuan pork. Both bloody marvellous. We will train it straight to Budapest this morning in time to see Hungary play on a big screen somewhere, looking forward to it.
    Goal now is just damage control on DPs leg before the long flight home. He has an aisle seat but we hope it is the correct side
