Tonight we had a cross team dinner with another PwC crowd that is also staying in the awesome Szacsa. I am sorry all for not bringing my real camera this week, so the oversized clock (aka my now defunct blackberry storm) will have to do for this event. The trout really was the whole friggin' trout. Head, tail, bones and all. Oh, and this is Krisztina. She is my only teammate whose name I don't butcher everyday. While she throws an extra z in there, it is said the same way or so I am lead to believe.Anyway, dinner was great fun tonight. I was the only native English speaker at the table but it was fun to get so many different opinions and to talk with other non-Hungarians to see their perspective on life here.
I also tried Palinka, sour cherry flavoured, tonight. Whew - it was so strong. They served if from this fancy pour-er thing into these teeny-tiny "wine" glasses. I will have to take a picture of that too.
Oh and P.S. random fact of the day: Szekesfehervar used to be called Alba when it was under Roman rule 1500-2000 years ago. I am really wondering why they couldn't just keep calling it Alba. WaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaYYYYYY easier to say and spell. Just saying.
