A Day in Hungary

I didn't have much to do the Friday after Thanksgiving so I decided last minute to go to Budapest for the day. I went with Tiffany and Traci and it turned out to be pretty fun. I am little burned out of traveling everywhere, but I couldn't pass up an opportunity, especially since I am leaving so soon!!! We left the the Schloss at about 7am and took a three hour train ride. On our way we met a really cute old couple from California. They were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary in Europe. They told us that they were over here when the Berlin Wall came down in '89 and how everything started to change. When we got to Budapest it was freezing! We spent most of the day outside and it only got colder. I bought a fleece jacket, after that I was wearing seven layers of shirts and coats and I was still cold! I do not know how that is even possible, I guess I will never be a warm one. Oh well. We went to the Christmas markets and tried a really yummy Hungarian pastry that was roasted over a fire. The day went fast, too fast. I know that this next week will go even faster. It's crazy how fast time goes, and it will only go faster from here. Being the optimist that I am, I will try to seize every opportunity that comes my way so I don't miss anything:)
