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...
