ICE ON YOUR HOT TUB?


That was the question we kept hearing in our minds as the snow flakes tainted our hair in white while we were enjoying one of the popular thermal baths of the city.


Well... Budapest is a great place. Turkish, German, Venetian, Jewish and Magyar culture all mixed in a city divided in two by the not so blue Danube.

Seven days relaxing in the thermal baths, Psycho Mutants concert and traditional Hungarian food can do no harm to anyone.

For one week we are two more within the big tourist movement in Budapest, even when at this time of year you can nearly freeze your hands trying to get a decent shot from the bridges...

As tourists we also "enjoy" scam by the fake lost guy in the middle of the city and his friend playing the role of the good police... Unfortunately for them, it did not work out after we asked twice to see his identification batch and the only thing that we could see was his video club membership card.

Ready for the move and with our back feeling much better after a few days not having to carry the backpacks from A to B, we say goodbye to Buda and Pest with its seven bridges to unite them.

Our next stop, Eger, With its famous "Valley of the beautiful women"...hey! nothing to cheer about! it is only its origin denomination for their famous wine.
