Day 20

D87km; 10:00 - 17:00
Szekesfehervar - Sarhatvan - Cece - Paks
Back to Danube. After a shortcut we are at the Blue river again in Paks where we enjoyed some local fish soup. The stage was slightly boring with cycling on a more or less straight road between sunflower and corn fields, wandering how the locals can live without cappuccino or espresso. We somehow managed to stay dry and not too cold, although the temperature remained around 10 Centigrade. Its a matter of dressing up anything you have taken with you. Also usefull as the bags become lighter.
Our Hungarian improved dramatically. Very usefull when after 40 km you finally find a place with coffee with a couple of locals gambling on the fruit machines, discussing the politics and having an early Palinka.
Tomorrow some news about how we survived (the last one?) communistic hotel in Hungary. That happens to be the only place with B&B in this place.
