Its been almost a week that we have been in Hungary and with our only rest day this week we decided to go to Budepest, the capital of Hungary. We were told its a 2km walk to the train station where we will later hop onto a tram and end up on the outskirts on Budepest. Shouldnt take longer than an hour they said. WELL, just over an hour walk in the heat we found the train station and another 2 hours later we were in Budepest. At this point the team split with PW and Chrisjan heading to the Hungarian F1 Grand Prix and myself, Fouche and Tiffany staying in Budepest. When we arrived we met up with Bridgett Hartley our 500m and 1000m K1 women paddler. She is based here for most of the year to train with her coach Nandor Almasi. We had a look at the area she stays in and walked around town having a look at some awesome old buildings, monuments and other amazing structures. As the day dragged on we got one message from the guys at the Grand Prix to say they having a blast but struggling with the noise from the cars. Will hopefully get a detailed breakdown from the guys on how there experience was.
