Budapest

It's very different here than in Poland. The city didn't get bombed as much during the war as other Eastern European cities so there's some nice old architecture pre-1939. I've not had internet and I'm just in an internet cafe at the moment before going back out.

I was REALLY ill on my way here. I assume it was from getting back from India. I'm mostly better now but still being very careful and not eating much. I've not been in the mood to really tour. Done so much touring the last year and a half and it's been nice to just hang out with my friend here.

He's writing a law exam at university right now though so I'm going out for the first time to see a couple of places and take my first photos since arriving here Monday night.

Talk to you soon,
Eva

Budapest has the coolest, most bad-ass statue of liberty I've ever seen. It's frustrating that I haven't been able to find a good picture/poster of it, or even a good postcard. Long live Madyar.

I didn't take a picture of it. my camera died toward the end of my walk around town, but it looks really nice up on the hill there in Buda. I only stayed on the Pest side
