The culmination point of our adventures due to storm Boris was in Budapest. Although we explored a fair bit of the city, we were drawn to the river. We had long walks around the Danube River banks and the bridges and Alex managed to take some videos he put together. Cheers and Happy New Year!

This short video is to let everyone know that we are safe and sound, if a little wet, in Europe. In mid September, parts of Europe suffered severe flooding from a massive and long-lasting rainstorm. We were in Sofia, Bulgaria when all the warnings began, and we had to get to Budapest via Vienna early in the storm’s approach. More to come.
