Took a bus out into the country 45 minutes from Budapest to the farm owned by the Lazar brothers who were World Champion Carriage racers for a total of 13 years.Started with a schnapps (strong) then went on a carriage ride, toured the stables and trophy room. A highlight was a half hour show featuring an archery shooter on horseback, carriage racing, whip cracking horse riders who could make their horses lie down and do virtually anything. Then had Hungarian goulash for lunch with lots of red wine.Had a wander around Pest then caught the boat back across the river.
Saw the lights of Budapest again as we sailed off with a new lot of passengers. Only 2 kiwis.
