In mid-June, I tagged along on yet another business trip, this time to Slovakia where Jimmy was asked to speak about concurrrent design at a NATO Conference. We flew in late to Vienna on a Monday night and then drove to Bratislava—the largest city in Slovakia and one of the smallest capitals in Europe with a population of just 430,000—arriving around midnight at our hotel.
We were fortunate that our hotel included breakfast and secure parking, which allowed us to spend a few hours exploring the city without having to worry about our luggage. Immediately across from the hotel, we were greeted with this billboard, which is easy to understand without knowing a word of Slovak.
The immediate area surrounding our hotel wasn’t very impressive, with some buildings in need of a major overhaul.
Further along things got nicer and more colorful.
