... people ask me how Europe was my answer will be under renovation. And wet. Although Bratislava slightly redeemed itself by being sunny, so it was ok. But, being a city with the bizarre bridge, it also had its own statue quirk too. There’s bronze statues throughout the town of various figures, like a photographer, & a man at work. I was kinda disappointed that the sign above him said man at work & not men at work, as lonely planet had led me to believe. Oh well. It was still ...

... ticket machine and a booth with an attendant to buy tickets from. So we headed over there. But by now it was 4 pm and the attendant had closed shop, so we had a problem. We noticed that the ticket machine said that 18 SK was €0.60, and we did have a €1 coin. So we put that in. Nothing happened. We pressed the red "oops, give me the money back" button and still nothing happened. Luckily there was a craft shop in the adjacent shopping centre which was ...

... profile, including what I did while in Bratislava. I stopped trying to make it into a conversation and instead just smiled and nodded while thinking about other things. Definitely not the best of my couchsurfing experiences, but at least it gave me a free place to stay. I had another interesting encounter with someone who recognized me in the Bratislava Tourist Office. I was using the free internet ...

... jeden a pol hodinu. No ale myslienka bola zasiata. Neskor bolo treba vybavit este niekolko nutnych formalit. Napriklad viza pre Stanku do USA. A kedze som poznal aki su imigracni uradnici v USA neprijemni este aj vymysliet ako co im povedat aby nas pustili do krajiny. Pocas celej cesty si budeme robit dennik, aby sme nezabudli co sa vobec dialo, pretoze toho bude dost. Takze je noc pred odchodom, tak sa treba aspon trochu vyspat. Ideme na to!

... She came back with a cute guy who spoke English to translate the lady's message. Accident on the tracks ahead and it would be at least another hour before we move again. He and his friends, along with 3/4 of the train, were walking into the nearest town. I grabbed my pack and me and my sunburnt shoulder set off in the boiling sun for another unplanned trek. Silver lining, the unexpected walk evened out my sunburnt face from yesterday ...

After hearing so many good things about Bratislava from my new friends in neighboring Vienna I decided to check it out for a night en route to Budapest. Bratislava is the capitol of Slovakia... It's a nice city with lots of history... castles ...

... don't go running to check your maps -- Slovakia is about as landlocked as a country can be. Yet, nonetheless Bratislava was hosting its own beach volleyball tournament, complete with cheesy DJs, cheerleaders and a sponsorship from Playboy, who I believe was supplying chunks of the crowd with free magazines. If nothing else I enjoyed the irony as much as I enjoyed the day. So even though Eurotrip says that Bratislava can be "wery depressing," I found it be a fine little place.

... We were given two hours free time in the city to lunch and sight see. By the time we changed our money to their currency and ate lunch, we only had enough time to window shop on the way back to the bus. Only a few more hours driving for the day until I get to set up tent in another mossie infected campsite!!

... on the road. We reached the lake 'Liptovska Mara' and what we expected to be a quiet road following the shore turned carried a constant stream of cars full of day trippers from Poland. What makes it so popular are the Mexican restaurants, cowboy themed village, water parks and thermal spas - not quite what we expected. Once the rain started everyone jumped into their cars and sat in a traffic jam. Time for a coffee break ...
