Siófok - Balaton 2009

Hungary is close for a summer holiday. I've been to Siófok once in 2002 so I decide to go there again. Two friends joined and so we left Austria on Monday afternoon and around 6 pm we arrived at lake Balaton. It took us some time to find the campsite (thanks to the Hungarian software of the navigation system).

I did not expect anything I only wanted to lie around for two days. Unfortunately it rained on the second day. So we drove around the northern part of the lake doing some sightseeing at Balatonfüred and Tihany. Very impressive. We took a shortcut by crossing the lake by ferry.

Siófok has a very exciting nightlife. There is a long bar-street and some clubs located at or close to the beach as well as two big night clubs with several floors who clash for guests. In front of the campsite inside the water a platform for water skiing was installed. I didn't try but Hannes did. After five relaxing days we went back to Austria.

On our way back we stopped at Burgenland because my old friend Martin had invited us for a barbecue. After a last night in my micro-motorhome atween maize fields we returned to Vienna on Sunday midday.
