30.09.08 Salzburg, Austria

The city is overshadowed by The Sound of Music & Mozart. A bit bored with the city, I signed up for a trip to see Ice Cave outside of Salzburg.

The Ice Cave
(30 minutes walk to the cable car, from the cable car, another 30 minutes walk to the cave,in the cave, 700 steps to visit the first kilometre of the cave. I'm INSANE)

29.09.08 Bratislava, Slovakia

A quiet, small country more famously known for amazing hiking trails. But it wasn't my on my agenda in Slovakia. A short morning walk in the city before heading off to next destinations.

Definitely seen this somewhere out of Slovakia

26.09.08 Budapest, Hungary

Definitely not one of my best days in the trip. The train was delayed for 4 hours (imagine staying 12 hours lying flat on the overnight train); my cards didn't work; and running very low on cash; but other than that it was quite alright. Manageable craze. Ha!Ha!
