Right across the road from our apartment we saw two elderly ladies enjoying the afternoon sun. Maybe a mom and daughter with their pet and little garden. Such a typical scene.

We felt like we had pets of our own as these two

proceeded to make a nest right outside the fan over our stove. For the five days we were here we heard them cooing and walking around on the metal. The first day John heard them at 4:00 in the morning he thought we had rats in the cupboard. The sounds were that amplified.

Our first day in Budapest we rode the Hop on Hop off bus. We started in the afternoon so we could ride it for two days over the 24 hour time limit. This let us ride through one day then use the next day for our stop choices.




The railway station.






The Parliament Building, from across the Danube.

Pretty outstanding.
