Daytripping to Bratislava

Budapest was a bit overcast and because I didn't feel like going into any museums, I decided to go visit Bratislava. I am in Bratislava now and I will take the train back tonight.

Slovakia reminds me alot of Czech. Everything is cheaper (Cappuchinos are $1CDN, hot dogs about $.50), there are lots of street kiosks selling food and newspapers. Like in Prague, 'Prosim' works as a hello, thank you and goodbye.

The historical centre looks like a typical medieval town centre like Chesky Krumlov, Villenus or Tallin. Maybe not as steep as Tallin. It just gently slopes down to the river.

Want to guess which river is at the bottom of the town?
