Live from Budapest
Day 1: missing, one red suitcase

Rome from above

After a long and boring flight we arrived in Budapest. Unfortunately, my luggage didn't make the trip the whole way. So, after talking to some people in baggage claim, Derek and I took a cab over to the hotel. He wanted to take a nap, so we split up for a few hours. I wasn't very tired; I had been awake for way too long, but it still felt like the middle of the day. So instead I took a bath. Soaked away some of aches from being stuck on a plane for so long.

After that we met up again took a walk down the man street here. We tried to go to the art museum, but it was closed already. It was right outside of Hero's Square though, so we took a bunch of pictures and walked around instead. Below are a couple of those photos, I'll post the rest of them later.

We also went to the mall, where I bought some new clothing to wear. It took me a little while to get used to the currency difference. The easist way to remember it it that $10 is equal to 15,000 hungarian

My hotel is absolutely beautiful by the way. The rooms are huge too. My hotel room, is actually 2 bedrooms, two bathrooms, 1 living room, 1 kitchen, and a balcony. There is more room here than in my apartment.

So, that it for now, hopefully my suitcase will catch up with me at some point and I'll have a good day at work tomorrow.

Holy cow that's a big hotel room. If you look in the mirror of bathroom 2, you could see your reflection :)

The pictures are beautiful!

Shari - This hotel room is big enough for you, me, and all seven dwarves...

Michelle - The weather here is great, perhaps a little too great. It's about 75 degrees now and I wish it was cooler.
