Budapest at 1 AM

Hello All!!!


It is 1 AM in Budapest and Lance and I are going to do a very quick post on our way home for the night.

The 0vernight train here was much better than our previous one from Prague and we found ourselves very refreshed and ready to see all that Budapest has to offer.

We are staying in a gorgeous apartment off of the Vaci Utca which was where the first McDonald's in Eastern Europe was opened. Mmmmm filet o' fish. Budapest is a stunning city and seems to be, by all accounts, Jadian's and Lamy's favourite destination. The sites are grand and powerful as is the Danube running through it. It is truly amazing.

We have hiked up the main hill on the Buda side, viewed parliament on the Pest side and even soaked in a bath-house with local Budapesters. Amazing ;) We have one more day and night and we are super excited to take in all the city has to offer.

As for this moment, Lance and I have just come back from a delicious dinner on a boat on the Danube followed by a "Student Party" also held on a boat on the Danube. Too much wine and student beer :)

Bye for now! We will post more pictures (and maybe videos of me getting my groove on at the student party????) soon!

Lots of Love,

Amy, Lance (and Jadian from their bed back at Vaci Utca)
