Bratislava

After some research on the net, I had a day of communist influenced architecture, a castle and bridges planned. However........

It turns out it was:

Steam train day




One man band day



Slovak food fair day



So with a fist full of tokens



Pork knuckle in jelly with sauerkraut (not pictured).

Pork rib on creamed pea and potato with beetroot



Venison goulash and dumpling



Poppy seed cake with apple and red currant



Oh and a small glass of dark beer to wash it all down. Only after I had downed it, I realized that it was 11.5%!!! This required an afternoon nap under a tree at the festival and a leisurely stroll round the old town to finish the day before getting very wet in a thunderstorm.
