Bratislavia

This morning right after breakfast we boarded busses for a tour of this capital of Slovakia. Its long history was most recently as Czechoslovakia and of a Communist regime.  I was surprised at how large the city is.  Everywhere we went was in renovation and our guide talked a lot about Communism and how now the politicians are no better.

I did not enjoy the tour.  Our bus guide had a heavily accented English and was quite hard to understand.  The walking tour guide stood directly in front of each thing she was describing and therefore is in every picture!  She also could ot answer questions.

The city itself seemed depressing and the once beautiful buildings were covered in graffitti.
