Budapest on our own terms…

As we’re staying on the “Pest” side of town, we decided that it’d be a good idea to jump to the other bank and visit the Castle District, over in Buda. Signage isn’t the Hungarian’s forte and makes it almost necessary to hire a private guide if you don’t want to work a tiny bit.

We decided to visit the Museum of Budapest History which was interesting but didn’t knock our socks off. We took a leisurely lunch that we “sandwiched” in between our visit and that was enough for the day.

At night we took it easy and stuck around our hotel, a German chain aimed at the younger crowd which by the way, we enjoyed a lot. A Vietnamese restaurant provided some refueling for the night.
