    Hey all.

    Im heading to Budapest this August for the last few days of the Sziget festival. I'll be there for 8 days. I am planning on camping for the whole week with the first 3 at the festival then a few days in the city, staying here http://www.romaicamping.hu/ then the last few days a bit further out near the hills, staying here http://www.campingniche.hu/
    Maybe get some hiking in too.

    Thing is, ive been looking into Hungry this time of year and its meant to be extremely hot between 30 - 40 celsius not sure about night time temps though, so I am wondering about sleeping bags. I have a 3 season and it is very warm even during the cold winter we just had. Could I leave this at home, as it is very big and bulky and just use a liner, the thread on liners suggests that it should be grand but I just wanted another opinion, also which type would be best?

    any other advice would be great also! Thanks

    A liner would indeed be plenty, even a blanket would be sufficient. A mosquito net would be a very good buy as it could be placed over any openings to allow movement of air, but no flies or mosies in the tent.

    Maybe one of those portable fan thingies that also sprays water would be of some use, dirt cheap, runs on AA's and very compact

    its worth looking into i suppose although im not too sure about spraying water all over the inside of the tent. may have other uses though
