Discovering Bratislava
... she definitely did a fantastic job of promoting her city.
After the tour was over I headed to a restaurant that the tour guide had recommended for traditional Slovakian meals, and bumped into others that I had been on the tour with.

Katerina got us thoroughly turned upside down in the lovely city and we saw the US Embassy, a ton of statues (Slovakians have a great sense of humor), and a house-turned-museum.
