2:49 am
river. today. our first impression of budapest draws us down to the water. the banks of the danube here are part of a unesco world heritage site. but first the bus rolls past some of the city's principal historic monuments and sites like st stephen's basilica where alongside hungary and royalty and saints you'll find the final resting place of soccer legend fed and. then it's back to the bus which now heads for the water even though that's what they fade for the passengers are a little nervous. to the audience the danube is pretty rough today i'm a little anxious about whether the bus can deal with that hope we don't capsize. the high point of the trip is the splash down.

from every race paperclip seats next to each other and talking about life. then is back to the river for centuries the danube divided the two central parts of the city the first bridge connecting them was only completed in eighteen forty nine . to get them to pass i think dick cheney bridge was the first permanent bridge between pesh and buddha deadbeats but the danube still plays the lead role in the development of hungary's capital the door now. all. the floating bus slowly makes its way back to the ramp where it will return to dry land this unique journey through the hungary and capital is one the passengers will remember for a long time to come. and finally i think it's fair to say that most german men love two things in life soccer and cars now it may sound cliché or stereotypical but it
