Hello from Hungary!!

Well, I am not sure where to start, but everything in this country is an experience. Right from the flight over to finding our bags at the airport to buying train tickets to eating the food. But it's all great! Budapest is an amazing city, so much to see and do. It's hard to choose. Unfortunately, there's a herd of tourists wherever we go... maybe it's because we are ourselves a part of that annoying tourist group.
Very few people speak good english or any other foreign language for that matter. Signs are always only in Hungarian, so if there is no diagram, it's easy to be confused between the ladies' and the boys' room. :) Draw me a diagram, I say, as I was but a three-year-old toddler!

There's a definite identity crisis in the city. You have HUGE Coca-Cola and NOKIA signs on top of neo-classical buildings. You have a Burger King right next to the old market house. There are Marilyn Manson fans, there are little old ladies with shawls so small you have to step over them, there are VERY fashionable young women, wearing all the right clothes, the right perfume, the right make-up.... but with hairy armpits! It's all great!!

Must go now, hope ya'll are well! We are off to see the castle, wohoo!

Bid ad heilsa ollum a Islandi! Knus og kossar :)
