Day 34 Relaxed and productive

I love sleeping till whenever I want to.  Some people wake up at 5am and are awesome, others wake up at the same time and are miserable.  I wake up whenever and feel great, usually.  There are advantages to waking up early, but after 60km of paddling every day, it's nice to sleep in.

John and I headed off around 1230 and had to catch up to Toby, as he left early to go to super market and try to catch a fish, that's not figurative.

It was a little hot and a little windy, but overall great weather.

We stopped in a little Hungarian village, although it looked modern, to eat lunch and relax in the shade by the boat loading ramp.

I had a sausage wrap with tomatoes, peanut butter, sunflower seeds, and hot sauce... and it was actually pretty food!

John came back to the boat with extra goodies, one of them being an icecream cone!!!

We found Toby and paddled the rest of the day in calm waters singing songs from the 90s and watching an airplane spray chemical all over us, I gues they confused us with mosquitos.

We found an extra amazing camp spot.  White sandy beach with tons of drift wood for fire, and tons of perfect trees for hammocks.  Also, no weird plants.  There were a lot of mosquitos.  I spray bug spray everywhere but my face, so they attacked my face.

As were settled down some strange happenings occurred across river where there were a few houses on the hillside.

An odd 'motor' sound started, and then a dense cloud of smoke.  This went on for 1 or 2 minutes... and then 3 or 4... and then 2 hours later the whole time was covered in smoke as the sound got louder and softer.  We yelled for them to shut up, but realized the only thing we could do was laugh about how crazy and stupid people can be... especially Hungarians.




We had some wine and camp fire and now hopefully some good sleep.

The rain might come in the morning through afternoon.  We will be prepared.
