Days 9-15: Heirs to the Galloping Major

Budapest

Spent a couple of days in Bratislava, which was nice enough. Then headed down to Budapest which has been much more fun. Headed off to Memento Park, which has all the old Communist statues. They had promised lots of gigantic statues. There were quite a lot of statues and a few of them were gigantic. This one being the best...

...and this one which we agreed looked like someone fielding at the boundary.


Food has been the usual selection of fried stuff. Mmmm, fried cheese.


We also picked up tickets for Hungary v Moldova (Hungary won 2-1). Football was pretty crap but the atmosphere was excellent.
The foreign contingent, all wearing red to try to blend in with the locals.

Tomorrow I head for Transylvania...
