Bratislava in May

It didn't rain...although some days were cloudy...and out of the sun, there was a cold wind.

Lots of quirky artworks to enjoy amongst a variety of architectural styles....
Not much wildlife apart from some birds and insects.

I visted Devin Castle by boat...it is on the border with Austria about 75 minutes outbound...
But only 30 minutes to return, due to the Danube's current.

I also took a trip on the Old Timer's red bus to visit the Slavin memorial...
dedicated to the Red Army soldiers who were killed liberating of Bratislava, April 1945... many of whom are buried there.
