Budpapest and Vienna









So the above photos. Number 1 is one of the outdoor thermal spas in Budapest. We went out there in our bathers, it was snowing, it was amazing. 2. Is the lift in the building we were staying in. We had an apartment that was so cheap. It was like 29 euros a night, for the two of us. Kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Great location, so cheap. 3. Vienna, the Hofburg complex (I'm going on memory). There were lots of museums here, all in an old palace. 4. I'm saying it's King Neptune, but who knows. Vienna also. 5. This was the parliament building I think. Vienna. 6. Some little treasures somewhere in Vienna. We went to a tonne of museums and galleries. Vienna kind of broke us, so much walking, so much cold (though not as bad as Berlin a bit later). Our second night there saw us both in tears at dinner, vowing we would set ourselves a kinder pace. No more tears.

As you can see I've fiddled. Just wanted to get rid of that horrible background.

Alex, the email you sent, it just took me to my dashboard. Was there something else I was meant to do with it?

I'm an idiot. I have found the link, see you there! (I love what you've called it. This year is my TENTH as a blogger. And still muddling my way through!)

Ah, I see you've modified things a bit here. Are you happy with it like this, or would you like to make further changes?

Also, I upgraded your status to full admin at the other place, so you should be able to fool around with templates and backgrounds and stuff there now too.

What's Hungary like at the moment? Did you talk to any of the natives? I keep hearing that it's a failing Democracy and I'd like to know more.

It was bloody cold and wet. The natives were REALLY friendly. I expected a colder, iron-curtainish feel, but not so at all. Don't know anything about the politics, sorry. Was only there a day but would like to go back sometime, and go to Poland too. And Prague again.
