Day 1

Pretty uneventful trip to Heathrow and good flight . We were met by our taxi driver David , he and verity spent most of the journey discussing the trials and tribulations of Manchester United . Our boutique hotel is pretty central and is in an apartment block occupying the first floor .
After dropping our cases we headed to the Danube , taking in the sights as we went . A war memorial ( unusual fountain that senses you are there so you can walk into the middle ) and the parliament . It was lovely in the warm evening sun . We saw the poignant Jewish shoe memorial on the river banks and the chain bridge. We then headed for a light tapas meal as we had quite a lot of food on the plane ( surprisingly for a short European flight) .
First impressions are good, magnificent grand architecture, wide boulevards and a lot of statues.Leia mais
