Just finished our first day in Vienna, and I'm too exhausted to post anything poignant. So here's a bunch of pictures from Budapest, with cursory explanations. It's a spectacular city, probably my favorite of the trip so far! Definitely a return trip if I can ever make it.
 |
| Just a cool looking city street, chillin'. |
 |
| Fancy coffee! I got legit Turkish Coffee, google it if you don't know what that is, can't explain in a caption. |
 |
| Their parliament building makes ours look, frankly, pretty damn lame. |
 |
| It's a freakin' castle. In the city. I know, right?! |
 |
Fans of the Eddie Murphy/Owen Wilson epic I Spy may recognize that bridge
support as the hiding place of the "Leafy Bug" |
 |
| The former royal palace is, well, "royal". |
 |
| View from the Danube, with a well-placed Hungarian flag. |
 |
| Another view from the Danube, with more sweet huge buildings. |
 |
| The lunch they provided on our Danube cruise. These guys know how to party. |
 |
| Kickin' it in the street. No bigs. |
 |
| Gotta work on my Goulash Gut a bit before I can properly pull this look off! |
 |
| Look out, Noah, you've got competition! |
 |
| Big church. |
 |
| Inside big church. |
 |
Apparently they actually paint stuff on the inside of
those domes...who gets stuck with that job?! |
 |
Dad felt a bit like a bawse being able to drop a 10,000 Florent bill, until you
realize the exchange rate is 170 to the dollar, so each Florent is worth about
half a cent. Still looks cool, though. |
 |
View of the "Pest" side of Budapest, taken from the "Buda" side...did you
know they were originally two cities, and the names
were just mashed together? |
 |
| Mmmm, beer! |
Hope you enjoyed your virtual tour, now it's time to sleep. Please leave any tips at my apartment.
