Budapest

Its been a while - the Internet here is as good as always - but here it finally is: My entry for Budapest!

After spending five days in Vienna, I left for Budapest on the afternoon of December 26th. Its really a beautiful city and I spent the next two days visiting Pest (east bank) and Buda (west bank), two full days of beautiful streets and buildings, a huge Parliament building, attending La Bohème at the State Opera House and visiting castles and old parts of the city.

Here are some photos - enjoy!
