Default Soaring sites - N. Italy, Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia.

This site is near Budapest, offers ridge and thermal flying.
Have no idea what can you rent there nowadays.
Last I flew there was at the 1989 Old timer's meet.

-Late August-early September 2006, taking my wife on a secondo
-luna di miele (second honeymoon - doing this about every 3
-years seems to work so I can go soar on weekends) into
-northern Italy (Lake Como, Castelrotto), then to Hungary - my
-mother's grandparents emigrated in the 1860's - (Budapest,
-Eger, Kecskemet), Croatia (near Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Pilvice
-Lakes) and Slovenia (Bled).

-Any suggestions for soaring sites to "just happen to drive by"?
