Our train ride from Bratislava to
Budapest went by without incident, graciously allowing us to take in the
wonderful scenery as we steamed along the mighty Danube (ok, not a steam engine, but
was still nice) flanked by golden autumn colored trees, small boats dotting the
river, and an overall peace and serenity that made me wish the train would
just break down for an hour or two. Not today, sadly, but Budapest was waiting
for us to indulge in her glory.
