It was now past the middle of the week and nothing had shown up. Dave & Kate carried on as usual, fully aware of their situation, but not overly phased by it.
When it came to Friday morning (they were due to check-out on Sunday) they took their clothes to a launderette down the road. There was still no room for this Europe thing to fail. They weren't doing anything from their own will to keep it afloat, they simply had seen enough times that something was going on.
They arrived at the internet terminal in the afternoon after a brief period of confusion and turmoil and discovered a gift had been given to them yet again. A couple of SoulJah's, Brian & Agnes, had come to the rescue with funding to take them on to Vienna for a week or two.
Dave & Kate returned to the hotel that night not overly joyous but just extremely grateful for what had been given. It still didn't change their situation. As there was only effectively a day to sort out accomodation and travel to Vienna, they felt they still may be checking out the hotel on Sunday with nowhere to stay. They knew they would not rush themselves just for the sake of it.
