Bratislava to Sarajevo? Wasn’t it meant to be Bratislava to Thessaloniki? A cursory check that I had the right departure time before leaving the hostel for the airport alerted me to something that was very wrong. Suspends operations??? SkyEurope bankrupted, and around five hours before we were due to fly the fleet was grounded. So what to do?

Tokaj; a great little town. Population is around 2000 which is just a nudge over the number of people in the town where I spent my formative years in Australia. Famous across the world for their wine, the Tokaj Aszu even gets a mention in the national anthem, not bad for a drop of grape juice hey?
