The first thing we see this morning is rain - and lots of it. Our room has a wall of windows which let's us see the passing landscape. Today's tour isn't until this afternoon (and we are still travelling) so we hope that the weather will cooperate - it doesn't.
The tour that was supposed to be 5 hrs has been shortened to 3 as the Hungarian customs took longer than expected. The part of the tour we are most interested is the cancelled part so we blow it off. As it turns out we made the right decision. In the words of one eleoquent American "it was cold, wet and stupid". Instead, we made use of the ship's launderette, watched a movie and napped!
The level of the river seems much higher here as the branches of the trees on the bank are still submerged. There is no flooding anymore but it is certainly easy to envision the problems they had a month ago - and this rain today won't help.
Tomorrow we are in Budapest.
