An interesting statue caught my eye: two soldiers locked in an embrace! Right in front of the train station in Prague!
We took a train to Budapest, it was a seven hour ride.
Haha... silly photo in the toilet of the train!
Train station in Budapest.
We went for our first free walking tour: Jewish walking tour! Meet our tour guide, she's really nice!
My fave part of the tour: ruins bar.
Wine with soda, a must-try!
Dinner!
Our hotel.
Goose-liver! I remember that it was Aunt Juvina who introduced me to this!
Foxy I love you!
Our guide for the walking tour on our second day in Budapest. We joined a general walking tour about Budapest.
Love-locks! You can find them everywhere in Europe! Mostly on bridges!
It was raining non-stop for three days in Budapest, hence to flood><
We cross the bridge, leaving Pest, and heading over to Buda.
Can you see the bullet holes in the wall?
A car from the communist era.
Fisherman's Bastion: Walt Disney's inspiration.
After lunch, the three of us went on our separate ways. JC went for a turkish bath, Jingyi went shopping I think. And as for me, I went for a "communism tour".
Aha! It's Gabor again, my guide from the morning tour, and he remember me!
I met a new friend, he's a Malaysian exchange student in Norway.
The water's so clean that you can drink from the fountains!
The oh-so-sinful-dinner.
Sunset was breath-taking.
Thermal baths! Something you have to do in Budapest!
I met a really nice guy from Geneva in the pools. We chatted for quite a while til I was heady from the heat! Apparently he works for the UN and used to be a footballer! What an interesting fellow :D I kinda lost JY and JC because they went to explore the rest of the bathhouse while I was chatting with the friendly gentleman. So, I left the bathhouse early and went to explore my surroundings.
I found a circus!
It was so hot that day! I couldn't resist buying an ice-cream :))
I met a gypsy from the circus who was training his pony :D so I asked him to pose for a picture
Food for ducks!
But the pigeons were more interesting in the food. Where were the ducks??? They were adamant about ignoring me attempts at feeding them.
I soaked my feet in the pond after spying an elderly lady doing the same.
I chanced upon "heroes' square" by accident!
The burger kept me company on the long and arduous train ride back to Prague. We had a huge problem with our tickets, and the ticket inspectors were very rude about it. So, we had to pay a 17 euro fine to solve the problem. OMG...
A white-sauce pasta dish with chicken, mushrooms and olives! Olives are just yum! I love them so much :D :D :D
Work in progress...
Tada! Tomato soup!
I got a new camera at last! Sorry mom, I had to pay in cash because my credit card kept being rejected! It was a steal: 266 SGd! The price of the camera, the memory card, and a free gift (a pair of binoculars) was unbelievable :D Happy~~~ Looking forward to taking lots of photos. Thank you, Xiang Yan for helping me get the camera at Alza! :) :) :)
Had KFC for lunch with XY and Ricky (my two fave people in Prague) at Novy Smichov. Yum! It was a great reward after helping Ricky move into XY's place.
