Erica accompanied me through Ocsa on her little chestnut arabian mare...
...and then I rode along a quiet canal for miles.....
The first TV company were waiting for us on the east side of the Danube, and Dallam and I obediently trotted up and down, posed for the camera, and I gave the first of many interviews.
We are filmed leaving on the ferry....
Dallam with a rather pained expression on the little ferry across the Danube - it had room just for us, the lorry and a van.......
Arriving on the other side to yet more media attention.... Tamas our host acts as interpreter.....
His wife Clara met us with a little cohort of riders including her young daughter, and we rode to their smallholding which they run as a rescue centre for animals.
A happy evening in Szazaloma Batta with Dora (left) Clara and Tamas (right) and daughter.
The hand brake on the lorry has been playing up but on inspection it transpired that the rear brakes were kaput. The fabulous Tamas had a mechanic on the job that evening, and I went to sleep in the farmhouse with the sound of hammering in the distance as they attempted to remove the rear wheels.
