BudaPest at night was a wonderous sight as we sailed through the heart of the city beneath the Chain Bridge. Our captain took us all the way down the river between the city fronts and back again to anchor just beneath this fabled bridge. Festival music played loudly as though in a competition between the city centers. Revelers waved and shouted from the bridges. We waved and shouted back. The gala party atmosphere mad it hard to fall asleep last night. And this morning we are all a little quietened by knowing this is our last full day of river cruising.
We are docked on the Pest side so that our view last night was of the glittering monuments of the long time capital of Buda. And this morning as the Funicular began to carry its passengers up the hill to their Saturday morning destinations we have full view. Must go as breakfast is ready and in an hour we leave to tour this gem of Europe.
