Intermission

I’m sitting in a railway Bus Station with a ticket for my destination, on a tour of one night ……

Enough of that! But I am in a Budapest Bus Station waiting for the FlixBus to take my bike and I back along the route I cycled all the way to Düsseldorf. It’ll take 18 ½ hours starting at 10pm – can’t wait :~/

I felt a lot better about Budapest after a good night’s sleep, although it was full of a multitude of languages as tourists from everywhere were here. I’d grown very attuned to the peace and quiet of the country and had managed to avoid most cities along the way. Some might say that was terrible and that I was missing all the usual sights – Cathedrals, Museums, “local” tourist food etc. Nah!

But I did go to an Organ recital in St Stephen’s Bascilica. I think the concert was geared towards showing the full power of the “World Famous Pipe Organ”, rather than it’s range. Apart from that the city was hot. I think the temperature has hit 30 plus for my last three weeks. I’m beginning to melt.

As I mentioned I’m heading to Düsseldorf then cycling back to London from there before flying to Madeira for a week. After that ?? I’m not sure.
