European Players?

[putridbreath]

Over the next ten days (May 17-27) I'll be traveling with my handbell ensemble to Europe (Austria/Hungary/Slovakia) with stops in the cities of Gyor, Budapest, Bratislava, and Vienna. I have little knowledge about these areas and was wondering if there were any "must do" things in these cities or countries. What is unique to the particular areas or something I shouldn't return home without? In addition, I'd be willing to bring a deck and play Movie block with anyone interested in meeting up.  (But it looks like my schedule is busy enough as it is  ).

As for Austria, there's Elrohir in Salzburg who you could visit, but if you wanna see the richest country of the world, just come and visit me in Switzerland!

I don't know much about hungary, I know more about Czech Republic, Ukraine, Germany, France, and so on...
