Day 28 Arrival to Budapest

Today was a  nice wake up. I learned how to deal with the brisk cold wild in my hammock.  I stopped and started all day, but finally was able to turn off my mind and just paddle.  Days like today were the reason i do what I do.  Not many thoughts, little wind, plenty of sun,  and a calm beautiful river as it split in 2.

The right side of the 30km island is hectic and big boats, whereas the right side, the right side, was very calm and beautiful and people doing water sports with great scenery.

I pulled in to a row club with, to my surprise, a bunch of people chilling in a pebble beach.  I talked to some people and found a place to store my boat in Budapest safely for the weekend.

The riverwalk is full of people and drinks and food and canopies and chairs and bikes and pretty people just enjoying outside.

A girl named Jessica help me exchange my Euros to Fornines which is Hungarian money. 

I then bought a bottle of wine and walked around, took the metroz and headed downtown.

The first bar had cheap drinks and good people and I met a guy who used to be on the Hungarian Olympic high jump team.

I went to wondering and found myself in a huge club party thing, twice.

I took a taxi home, slept on the beach, was cold, and woke up to rain.
