Pics from vacation - Budapest!

Here are some pictures from the second leg of my vacation: Budapest, Hungary! I was pleasantly surprised by Budapest, and I loved it. There are so many things I still was unable to visit/do, and I would love to go back.

Here is a lamppost. They had some top drawer lampposts in this city

A fantastic market Mia and I just stumbled across

Eating delicious goodies at said market

This was like a chocolate baklava or something. Heavenly.

On a walk along the Buda side

More from our Buda side walk

Buda Castle

Touristy but super fun and yummy restaurant

The great Synagogue (2nd largest in the world after the one in New York). Also the day my camera died.

At the Synagogue

Graveyard at the synagogue

Hero's Square. I know its blurry, but that was a fantastic jump.

More Hero's square



Me with the statue of "anonymous" and I don't really know what its all about but this place right past Hero's Square, near the zoo and the thermal baths, was pretty cool looking.

Picture of the Chain Bridge

On the top of the Buda hill at Buda Castle!

Some ruins by the castle

"baby you're firework!" (this is the courtyard where Katy Perry filmed the music video for that song)

Picture of the Matthais Church. Really cool but about 60-70% under construction!

Mia at her favorite place - the Matthais church

My favorite part - the Fisherman's Bastion. Simply Lovely.

Fisherman's Bastion!!!

So happy. And not at all green screened. Even though it kind of looks like it.
