Easter Break Part II - Budapest




Budapest sewer cap (with my new white sneakers)










Its a rainy and cold morning in Graz and its really dreary outside. I wanted to go school for gym but i think i'll stay off that till the weather gets better. Anyhow i said that i wanted to finish blogging about budapest
so here
goes.




















View from the hill opposite Pest (budapest is made up of buda and pest and connected via 6 or 7 bridges) That building is the parliament house. Good stuff.









Night View of the Castle in the backdrop and the chain bridge. Budapest looks much prettier at night when its all lit up.






















The guys on the bridge with honorary member chew A.K.A laconic in the center. He joined us for the final leg of prague and for budapest. Great fun with him around other than the salty fish boots.










This was taken late at night before we went clubbing so there is no one around! :D



















This is quite unlike my usual posts but this picture deserves some commentary. Its day 1 in Budapest. Meet Budget Chew and Matthijs from Netherlands. Chew is tucking into his budget breakfast all the way from st gallens which consists of famous st gallen bratwurst and baguette. Taking bites out of each of the ingredients, he makes a meal out of it. Meanwhile Matthijs pays about 4 euro for a nice sandwich. We have much to learn from budget chew.



Day 1 - On the chain bridge




















Sepia shot.











The views at the top were good but i regretted not waiting till night. Anyhow, this is an evening shot on the top of the hill.


Day 1 was more or less quiet since we had 4 days in budapest so we decided to take it easy and just walk around.
















The comparatively chwee castle on top of the hill, i think singapore's parliament house looks nicer :x
oh well.
Ok, i'll blog later~ Lunch now.
