Dresden The place we stayed last night served the most amazing breakfast that included scrambled eggs and sausages. They even had real juice instead of the watery cordial we've been given elsewhere...not that I'm complaining. We travelled along the motorway at 140km/hr, Andrew says he's not going to like going home and having to stick to 100. I must admit it is very unnerving driving at that speed. Shooting through the west of Poland we soon crossed the boarde...

I chose not to write yesterday. There was a lot to process and I wasn't really sure what to write. Auschwitz museum was incredibly respectful. I'm still not really sure what to write. Perhaps it is something that can only be understood if you've been there. Last night we had dinner at one of the restaurants in Krakow and enjoyed traditional Polish cuisine. We then wondered into the town centre stopping at an amazing desert place before wondering through the clo...

We headed straight for the great hall markets and had fun walking around looking at everything. We were there for 2hours and then headed to a park for lunch. One of the things I really love about Budapest is all the parks and playgrounds. You walk around a corner and there is a cute little playground. After lunch we h...
