Leaving Slovakia

We had not ridden the bikes for three days and had a great rest in Bratislava. The next part of the journey was to complete the swing westward back towards England. There was still much to see and do on the long road ahead but we couldn't even get out of Peter and Maria's building car park. The security boom would not open without exact change to pay for parking for the three days we were there. Peter ran around everywhere collecting the needed coins and eventually summoned us to get ready and approach the boom gate as he fed the meter with copious amounts of coins.
Miraculously, the boom opened and we were on our way. Back towards Austria and it's beautiful alpine country.
