We left Vienna yesterday - this photo is actually from the Butterfly House in Vienna which was a part of the Imperial Palace.
We got to Budapest in the afternoon and spent it trying to avoid roadworks. Unsuccessfully. Eventually, we made it to the Citadella and Buda Castle, which are both in the hills.
Just a quick point - Budapest was originally three seperate cities: Buda, on the hilly side of the Danube, Pest on the flat and fertile side and Obuda, the old Roman settlement.
The photos below are from a spot called the Fishermans Bastion, which was the part of the city wall that the Fishermans Guild were responsible for. And its the only bit still looking good, so all I can say is I'm going to give Fishermen a wider berth from now on.
Below is the Pork Snitzel we had for dinner. I ate just over a half of it and 7 people managed to finish it. Then today I had a liver sausage, which was really nice. Tonight, I'm having GOULASH! (Yay, love goulash... if its what i think it is...)

I forgot to mentiont that Hungary has tons of wind farms, partly because its a very windy country in general. It was pretty cool to drive through a see windmills far into the horizon.
Good to see you're making an effort to keep healthy by eating lots of vegetables with your snitzel
And I barely even touched the potato
Your hair!!!!
