    A few pictures from Budapest.

    Miss M and I took a little bike ride on our tandem from Frankfurt to Budapest.

    I had the Olympus 420 (great travel camera BTW) along.

    Great shots! Did you get a chance to explore any of the underground sections of the city?

    Nice stuff, MB. I like the image of the dried fruits out on the stands while people walk by.
    looking forward to more . . .

    Excellent!

    That's a hell of a bike tour! Thanks for sharing and mentioning the E-420. As soon as I saw you'd posted I wanted to hear about how the camera worked for you. Perhaps you can make an E-420 trip report on the Olympus forum?

    How long of a trip was it in miles and days?

    I like the photo of the antiqeu cameras. That's a cool catch. At least for posting on a photography site it is. I don't know what if the folks on RoadbikeREVIEW.com would appreciate it as much as I do

    The 420 didn't take up much room at all and I carried a mini-travel tripod. I also had a Pentax optimo waterproof camera for on-bike stuff.

    We rode for 2 weeks and got in around 1,200 miles (we zig-zagged and got lost a bunch).

    I was tempted by those cameras. The guys on Road Bike Review liked my ride reports just fine but no one commented on the cameras....

    Yes but not as much as we would have liked to.

    Getting Lost

    Being able to get lost is a wonderful luxury

    Post a review for you Pentax too, please! We need more reviews for Pentax compacts - especially the optio waterproof cameras.

    Re: A few pictures from Budapest.

    A pleasure to view your travel log. It's amazing what can be done with a small camera in the hands of an experienced photographer with a great eye.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Waaaaaaaait just a minute..... "We rode for 2 weeks and got in around 1,200 miles (we zig-zagged and got lost a bunch)." Are you kidding me? And no one commented on THAT? On a bike AND you took photo's, holy crap and I complain about walking around a race track in the heat :blush2: Is your face on the Medal for Patron Saint of Photographers? Oh, all that aside, the photos are awesome! Love the colors of the fruit and the camera shot also!

    We pretty much ride every day of the year and often take week long bike trips.

    Not a big deal if you do it all the time.

    You said it MB - I remember doing this when a lot younger, but then we haven't had snow for a long, long time: LOL:

    Love the travel pics.
