Budapest , Hungary
Day 13
Having spent the night in a motel in romania, we set off for budapest. A long day and am starting to feel tired and sore. The motorway riding and wind on a naked bike is taking its toll on my neck.
Unbelievably (or maybe not) ive lost or broken 4 pairs of sunglasses on this trip.
Pulled up into a cool campsite 4k from Budapest. Met some cool folk. Decided to spend 2 nights here and take a rest day and see some of Budapest.

Day 9
No photos today. Spent whole day on bikes riding through greece to macadonia. Weve done about 2,000 miles so far. Went from 34 degrees sun to thunder storms. Getting through macadonia border was no problem once I flashed 50 euros at the none english speaking border control lady.
Greek bikers seem to think number plates are optional. They either dont have them or duck tape them. They are then able to drive through all the tolls without paying and speed past the speed cameras.
Bulgaria tomorrow. Treated ourselves to a 5 star hotel tonight in centre of macadonia. Partly because we were soaking wet from thunder storm and couldn't find anywhere else and partly because we wanted hot showers and the chance to dry our stuff out.
