Budapest Boat Trip


We started our day by walking miles and miles, almost two bridges further than we had already been.  After the chain bridge heading out of town is the Margaret bridge which is at the start of Margaret Island.  At the end of this very long thin Island is another bridge.  The island does not allow cars on it so its a clean zone with parks and walkways etc.


We walked back to the Margaret bridge and then across it.  Claire had seen that there was a pink bus stop on the other side.  What?


The pink bus didn't turn up but a green one did and we got dropped of at market hall.



We had around an hour to kill before the first boat trip so once we had walked around the market we took a slow walk back past the chain bridge to the boat.


It was absolutely freezing on the boat and it didn't leave until 10 minutes late but it was value for money.  We got it free from the bus trip.


We had lots of views and I took lots of shots but we got colder and colder until we eventually was forced into the warm downstairs for some hot wine.







We were now starving and had spotted the Thai restaurant that Claire fancied while on the bus earlier so we started on the very long walk towards it.




It wasn't until 3pm that we arrived and it wasn't what we hoped for but had little choice but to eat there now.  It was even worse than we thought and Claire was very disappointed, especially as it was our wedding anniversary.  Im not sure how I got the blame for this one though?  It must have been because it was cheap.  Every cloud!
