6The next few days see us enter Germany and drive
through the Eifel with its wonderful winding
roads and lush vegetation. Then, onwards through
the former East Germany,where away from the main
cities,one could often imagine being in the 1960s
before arriving in the Czech capital Prague for
our first rest day.

9Fully refreshed, we head southeast through the
Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary and Romania-four
countries in five days. Rallying is a popular
short in these parts and we are relying on local
enthusiasts for some excellent and varied tests
and Regularities. Our final rest day is in the
Romanian capital Bucharest where the world's
largest parliamentary building, constructed in
the 1980s by formed dictator Nicolae
Ceausescu,will be hard to miss.
