Photo Overload: Budapest, Hungary

The Sights (**yawn**)

I woke up to a conductor banging on my sleeper cabin door. And half-awake walked into this little communist treasure.

Tiger guarding the castle...that's actually just a mid-1900s replica of the real thing.

Love that dirty water...Budapest you're my home?

Thanks that clears everything up.


Parliament Building

Heroes monument. When I didn't recognize a single name on the monument, I knew I was in trouble. Thanks Hopkinton High School.

Opera House


Hermes (Not naked statue)! This is for all the Track Stars reading.

Communist Museum #1

Inside the communist party.

Food Hall

Cheap Food, Lots of it. Heaven.

Thermal Baths!!!


It looks like any other building from the outside.

Although the guy on the side looks relatively comfortable, the temperature was like 20F.

Outdoor hot tub! It smelled like eggs.


I told the girl if she dropped my camera in the water, I'd slit her throat. Luckily she didn't drop it, or she'd have found out I wasn't kidding.


Broadway in Budapest?
I think this idea is a train wreck waiting to happen. How can you possibly fit Hungarian words to a melody written for English.

Phantom of the Opera and The Producers

Jesus Christ Superstar

Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat

Food!

Soproni: Hungarian beer



"Hungarian" goulash= soupy

Hungary apparently doesn't have fire codes. This bar (The For Sale Pub) is made almost entirely of wood. On the inside, they have promoted customers to leave little slips of paper tacked to the walls. So logically, with all this flammable stuff around, they chose to light the place with candles.

Lawn-goosh: You don't even have to go to the State Fair to get fried dough in Hungary.


Langos: I think I prefer powdered sugar over sour cream, shredded cheese, and cucumber.



Sweden 20: I think we can all agree this was a step down in my hair stylings.

Hungary 2011: Much better.

Hitting the town in my zip-up hoodie. I really put a lot of effort into that night lol.
