thanks Josie

One of my christmas presents was a lonely planet book called "Central Europe" given to me by JOsie.

It has been cool reading little titbits about Austria and looking at the maps. Greg worked out that from end to end, it's only as far as Auckland to New Plymouth. So not that big. But they have twice the population of NZ.

Something else Greg discovered, which he was very excited about is that Budapest is only 5 hours away, aa...and, it's only about 200 Euros to get there and back on the hydrofoil. Significance? the Formula 1.
