Way to go Tom! I'm just back from walking the Great wall of China, but it looks like you trumped me with the northern lights!

Paint your photo
Tom, I've really enjoyed your travelogue. A great blend of history and anecdote, with great photos, or should I say paintings? Hope to see you in Canberra for Christmas. Bring all your paintings down on CD and we will have an exhibition. Cheers

Pasta dish at Hell Hunt
Thanks to Estonian for the correction. I actually went back to Hell Hunt again the second night and noticed my error, it has now been corrected in the blog entry. I had to have the pasta with smoked salmon, parmesan and creamy sauce one more time. It is absolutely to die for!

Clown & Bard
Hey Tom, we've stayed in Clown&Bard Hostel, one tram station away from the main station. Not that modern but clean and a nice party place with damn cheap beer (that's why we liked it ;)) Marcel

Nostalgia
Great to hear from you again Tom...in case you can't remember who I am I'm that daft Irish fool that fell off the side of the most dangerous road in the world. Anyway glad you liked Prague I was there many years ago now and loved it to bits....it was a lot cheaper back then. By the way what was the name of the australian bank..."Oh the last train out of Sydney...".Anyway if your ever in Ireland be sure and let me know.

Bucharest Budapest
hello Tom - nice travel report you wrote about Budapest. Just two small points - 1. In the first section you erroneously write Bucharest as the capital. 2. Hungary was one of ten (not 9) countries which joined the EU in May 2004. Beside that: chapeau for the nice blog!
