Szentendre
Island (Hungary)
Szentendre Island is an island in the between the Danube Bend and Budapest in Hungary. It is 31 km long with an area of 56 km².
We stopped off here to go to Bodor Major, a tourist farm on the island.
We were taken in horse-drawn wagons from the dock to the farm (about 1 km).
The farm had won a number of awards for their carriages in show competitions.
Most of them had been built recently as they had foot-operated disc-brakes.
We were entertained by a Hungarian trio while we had plum brandy, strawberry wine,
Hungarian pizzas, Hungarian Goulash and Hugarian sweets.
Then there was a great equestrian and animal show.
A chariot with 4-in-the-hand.
Bullock cart.
Donkey cart.
A foot on each horse.
This was one of the highlights of the 29-hour Uniworld trip.
