Final sign-off

Well everyone, it's been a great run. I have really enjoyed trying out this blogging thing while living here in the Pest. However, my time is coming to an end in less than 12 hours and so too the blog will be coming to an end. Let's hope that someday my world travels and blog will pick back up again.

However, before I call it done, I should fill you in on what has been going on for the last few weeks - well besides the working part.

Erynn and Jenn came to help me celebrate my last week in Hungary. We made one short side trip to the Hungarian countryside for some wine and relaxation. Eger was the perfect spot. We took a short train ride and ended up in a quaint town where they are known for the wine. We spent the afternoon drinking wine, maybe a bit too much, and then let all the stress leave our bodies in the modern Turkish bath. It was perfect. Oh and sideways Jenn may have made an appearance.

We also squeezed in a few of the Budapest tourist attractions that I hadn't yet accomplished - Margarit island, Terror Museum, hike to Gellart hill, Cave Church, etc as well as visiting a few restaurants and bars that I have been wanting to try. I think Erynn, Jenn, and I can all agree, if you visit Budapest please go to Cafe Kor for dinner and then go to Doblo for a few glasses of wine. It was an almost perfect evening.




Thanks Budapest! It's been a great run.
