Námestie Slovenského národného povstania 36, 811 01 Bratislava, Slovakia

The last couple days were so busy, I've had no time to write. On Tuesday I did a tram tour of the city with the highlight of Bratislava Castle. On Wednesday, I joined a walking tour of the Old Town, very hot weather and the group was too large to hear the guide give her historical comments. The Icebreaker was at a large room of a restaurant where most of the attendees gathered to meet, greet and eat. It was a buffet - not too fond of buffets, but the wine was nice.

Františkánska 424/3, 811 01 Bratislava, Slovakia

Arrived at Hotel Arcadia on Monday 29 July after 4 airports, a train and 2 taxis. Weather very warm, like south Florida minus the humidity. Since my room was not quite ready, I went for a walk around the area. Took my camera (even though I will not be able to download photos until I get home - dumb) bec. I should never go anywhere without it. I stopped at local Slovak Cafe and had a local beer near St. Michael's Gate. Back at the hotel I found my room to be fabulous! See photo. After getting organized and having a nap, I went shopping at a nearby market. Made a few mistakes but learned a lot. With bread, cheese, grapes, wine, I had a late dinner.

Zámočnícka 400/13, 811 03 Bratislava, Slovakia

Breakfast buffet was fabulous this morning! Cell photo of potato pancake, grilled tomato & soft boiled egg could not be uploaded (?) and photos of dining room also will go unrecorded for now. I realize that the only way I can add photos to this blog is by shooting them with iPad. Off to do bus tour of Bratislava now.
