So we started

A hard day, a full day. Initial plan:
- 3:30 pm - leave the office
- 4pm - start the trip

In fact:
- office till 4pm, run to the Renault showroom for the impowerment from the leasing company, to be able to get out of the country, fuel.
- 4:30pm - i'm home finally. take a short shower, verify the luggage, everything is there =>
- 5:30pm - start the tour.

The driving was good, with no bad events. 150km/h on the highway (and i thought i can drive within the legal limit = 130), slowing when the locals slowed (probably before the cameras). Unfortunatelly, the GPS didn't know that the hungarians are started the highway to Nadlac, so we lost about half an hour with a small detour.

Then I clicked on the GPS's map by mistake and we've got a 50km prolongation of the route, luckily we observed it in time, after passing our destination, that became "checkpoint" in the meanwhile

In the end, everything was ok, we arrived in Bratislava, at Rafa and Adi's place (by the way: thanks for hosting us) at about 11:30pm Romania's hour, 10:30pm local hour. But, what do you know ... a storm starts so quickly that we cannot take the luggage out of the car. We managed to do it after more then one hour with the price of a short shower.

We have no pictures today, and probably we won't have too many tomorrow as well.

Tomorrow's plan:

9-10am - leave for Berlin via Brno, Praga, Dresda - 700km - i think about 7 hours with a safety delay. We want to see Dresda for 3-4 hours, so we can arrive in Berlin in the evening, around 8-9pm. I hope tomorrow's plan we'll go better.
