Caught the overnight train down to Hungary. Was actually a better experience than I thought. Stayed in a motel that looked like it was modelled on Sex and the City - Blah!
There's a lot of beggars here, lots of people trying to scam you on the exchange rates, lots of girls trying to rob you blind on bar scams (helped a Yank who was going to pay $50 just for a Red Bull!). Stayed here a couple of nights and it pretty much drizzled the entire time - so no Segway tour. Did take a bus tour though and there are some sights to see - it's a pretty city when you get away from all the thieves, scammers and criminals.
I'm obviously generalising here - the lady at the Segway place was nice as was the hotel staff...
The great thing was that beer came in one litre steins and I got to try foie gras which was delicious!
P.S. For Stu - this was the toilet in my hotel. The little despenser on the left hand side is not toilet paper but plastics bags - for the disposal of feminine hygiene products...
That is the foulest room ever!
