Not much to report. Yesterday I checked out of the hostel in Krakow and sat around waiting until it was time to go to the airport. I got into Berlin last night and intended on staying in the airport but sleepinginairports.com said Tegal is one of the worst. It's also not far from the city and the hostels were under 10 euros so I went to one to sleep. It would have been nice to spend more time in Berlin.
I'm just back at the airport having breakfast. My time in Europe is coming to an end and it has been grand. I followed the coast, the Loire river, various canals, the Rhine and the Danube on my bike. Sometimes I see obscure little places on the news and recognise them. I can't wait to watch the Tour de France.
I managed to see the 3 cities I wanted to see: Budapest, Prague and Krakow. They lived up to expectations. Krakow especially impressed me with its relaxed vibe. Not to mention everyone there is really really incredibly good looking (except the tourists) The bonus cities, Vienna and Bratislava were fantastic too.
I visited numerous war cemeteries and battlefields, landing sites and museums. I even got to fire some of the guns from WW2 (thanks Mick)! Now, like any good world war, it is time to finish up in Europe and continue in Asia for a while.
I better go do airport stuff. So my next post will most likely be from Bangkok in a day or two.
You ll always be welcome in Europe and especially in France Aiserey, flies well to Asia ... Nelly and I continue to follow your adventures on your blog. Have a good trip !
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your hospitality! My mother has a very high opinion of you for that! I will definitely be back to visit. Maybe in the future you'll be in Australia and we can do a bike tour. It is the flattest continent after all (also the driest...).
DeleteHave a safe trip- I enjoyed reading about your adventures in Europe, looking forward to hearing about Asia (perhaps you could become the next Bill Bryson and earn money from it!)
ReplyDeleteImagine that! His description of cricket remains one of my favourite chapters of any book. I just got to Bangkok. I realised in the taxi that I know nothing about Thailand.
