Vienna ? ... nop, Siofok (Balaton)


















You know I've told you last time that I'm going to Vienna ... well we had a last minute change :P we were hopping for a nice and waaarm weather, at the Balaton side, but instead it was cooooooold (thank God that it only started raining the day we left :D ) ...
But it was nice to visit Siofok. We stayed at a nice hostel or pension, whatever :P, near the train station and also the bus station.
It was a peaty that is was extra-season and the beach was rather empty (maybe because of the weather also) ... all the neat places were closed ... and the colored leaves were covering the streets ... kind of depressing ... but the water was nice, it was quite warm, I even wanted to go for a swim, but the cold wind maked me change my mind :(
When I maked the plans for this trip I thought of going to the egg museum, but you know that you do not always stick to plans, therefore I didn't visited it ... but I'll be visiting it next time :P
Oh, by the way, if you are ever in Hungary and you want to buy a train ticket (and you are under 26) ask for a <26 ticket. It's cheaper by 33% from the actual ticket.
And in one of the photos you can see a metal plate with Siofok. That was initially a 2 Forint coin, which is worthless now a days ... but the Hungarians found a neat way to make it worth 100 Forint! They have these machines installed in which you introduce the 2 coins (2 and 100 ft), you chose you pattern, and after words you get you souvenir coin :) A good thing for economy and tourism ;)
Oh, and I've also taken photos of some ducks and swans :) they are not afraid of people because they always receive food from them :)
Well ... that's about it :)
Have a nice weekend :)
Hugs and Kisses

searching for ... shoessss!!!

DAILY RITUAL
after my usual morning trip to work (with the metro)




I arrive to work, where I drink my morning coffee ... hmmmm! it's delicious!




after words I get to work ... for 8 whole ours




I also have to do some paper work, like signing the daily register ...




and after my shift is finished ... off to SHOPPING!!! (this is not part of my daily ritual).
Next month I'll be attending my cousins wedding, and I have the dress but my shoes are missing :(( and I've searched all over (almost) Budapest and still haven't found them :((
But no worries ... I have plenty of time left ... and tomorrow maybe I'll go to Vienna to look there also :P
Ups! didn't I tell you that I want to go there for the weekend? Hmmm ... my bad :D
Anyway ... if I go to Vienna I'll post pictures ;)
Wish me luck with my shoe shopping!
Hugs and Kisses!!!

becoming a grupie ;))



what is up with guitar players? why are they so lovable ? this are the questions I'm asking myself because I have a crush on one (guitar player) ... why? I can't explain ...
until now I liked Slash (Guns'N Roses) ... but now I like Peta (short for Peter) from a local (HU) band (no, I'm not gona mention the band's name because you'll think of nasty things ;)) )...
anyhow, seen them twice singing live and both times I couldn't get my eyes of him ... maybe, because he's the youngest one in the band (30), or maybe it's because he reminds me of someone (that's partially true) ... but all the time is like he's the main attraction on the stage ...
eh ... I'll get over it ...
anyhow, I have almost a month of Budapest left :(( what a petty ... I'm starting to feel like at home here :((
I will surely miss it :(( in the meantime enjoying it the best way possible ... BTW last night I discovered a really nice place to hang out, mostly students were there (it's near the dorms) and the entrance fee was symbolic (200 Ft ~ 0.8 EURO). But I think that it won't be opened for long, because the cold weather is coming and this is an outdoor place.
Other stuff that I should mention ? hmmm ... I don't think so ... maybe that I have found a great buss company, with 4 star buses, that takes you around the world and has the lowest prices (for more details www.orangeways.com) ...
well ... that's about it :P
write to you soon!
Hugs and Kisses!

P.S. "my guy" is the one in the middle (2nd picture) ... I think you guessed it by now :P
