Well good morning.
It is about 5:30 AM here in Nuremberg.
The sun is already out.
I don't even know how that is possible even for summer it seems a bit early.
Struggling here.
But anyways today is a travel day.
We are going from Nuremberg to Budapest and we booked tickets on Flixbus because it was
a lot cheaper than the train.
So we're going to be traveling.
Hi Sam!
Hello!
This is really early for Audrey especially.
Haha.
We're going to be traveling from Nuremberg to Prague to Budapest.
It is a long day.
It is going to be a long day.
Yeah, so we're leaving here we're going to try and leave by six thirty-ish.
Six forty-five ish.
And we should be arriving in Budapest around seven forty-five to eight PM.
So long day but we're bringing you along for the journey.
We'll show you what it is like to travel by bus in Europe and yeah going to finish my
breakfast.
Let's do it.
Bye.
Good morning.
We have tickets.
(German train announcements)
What are you getting?
Pizza.
That looks good.
I'm kind of on a diet again.
Pizza for breakfast.
I'm on a diet after South Africa.
I was just eating so much and drinking so well that I think this is going to be the
ultimate test watching you eat a slice of pizza in front of me when I wouldn't mind
some myself.
And?
You get the thumbs up.
It will be my snack on the bus.
It is time for an update.
We have made it to Prague so we are in the Czech Republic having lunch.
We've got about 50 minutes to spare before we get on the next bus.
Wonderful looking sandwiches.
We have cake.
Carrot cake and I have a panini that is coming.
Sounds good.
Okay but before we get into the food story time.
So what happened on the bus?
Oh oh oh.
When we were getting on?
Okay, so we got on and it is a double-decker bus and there is no assigned seats so you
can sit anywhere.
Anywhere.
So I found a nice seat and it was empty.
Nothing on the chairs so I go to sit down and this old man pushes me out the way and
he's like 'De Bin Ich.'
Like I am there.
And I bumped my head because I mean the bus is kind of low on top and I was like what?
Before.
What?
Before he pushed you he pushed me.
It was like Street Fighter on the bus.
He was throwing elbows.
Getting in there.
And it was empty.
It was empty up there.
That was really bizarre behaviour.
But aside from that the three hour bus trip was pretty amazing.
Like it was comfortable.
I would say the bus was only like a quarter full.
Maybe 20 to 30 percent capacity.
So we each got our own section of seats.
Yeah.
We did some work.
It was a three hour and twenty minute journey.
Yeah.
And we slept for half of it.
And it was beautiful.
There was a lot of uh like we were going through scenic farms, through forests.
Castles.
Yeah, once we got into past the Czech Republic we started seeing castles and then we got
a beautiful view of Prague as well coming in.
Anyways, enough chitchat.
Let's try that sandwich.
Time to dig in.
Chit chat.
How is that sandwich?
It is good.
I was just looking at the screen because they announce the departures.
So I don't even need to run off.
I can see when my bus is leaving.
There you go.
We can actually enjoy our meal.
Okay, and what did you get for yours?
So we pretty much made short work of that sandwich.
So I got a panini and it has ham and cheese.
So oh la lah.
They heated it up.
Mmmm.
This is actually a pretty decent stop for like you know a bus station.
Yeah, good food.
Pretty good food and it is nice to be able to just relax a bit before we catch our next
bus.
Do do doo do la doo.
Time for cake.
The cakes looked amazing but the carrot cake stood out the most so let's try that.
They have all kinds of cakes.
Lots of cheesecakes to choose from.
Oh, they had a what was it uh it wasn't a green tea it was some kind of it was chai.
Chai cheese cake.
Chai cheesecake.
I've never seen that.
Never tried that.
But Sam always goes for the carrot cake.
It is the classic.
That is wonderful.
The best part, I mean the best part for me was obviously the cream cheese but I just
love walnuts and just uh there is a lot of carrots in here too.
This is just a nice cake.
Hallo.
Well time for a much needed update.
We didn't film getting off the bus or oh I did film a bit of the taxi ride.
That is true I did.
Uh huh.
Well as you can tell it is night time outside so this was a very very long day of bus rides.
It is almost nine thirty PM so that was 12 hours or 13 hours of travel.
We're just waiting for our AirBNB host to come.
Fingers crossed.
Hopefully fingers crossed he shows up.
We've been here 15 minutes.
Yeah and a nice resident of the apartment let us come in.
He let us come in through the gate but chilling in the lobby.
We need that last key to get into our actual room.
The following morning.
Pfff.
Confession time.
We were so tired we didn't finish the vlog properly last night so anyways we are nice
and settled here in Budapest.
We're going to be doing actually we're going to be here for a couple of weeks.
Yeah.
And catching up on work, also hopefully filming a city guide, doing a lot of food reviews
and maybe some day trips.
But in the meantime we've got a pretty cool apartment and that will be our next video.
An apartment tour so here is a little sneak peak of that.
