Budapest

 Well, after being here for over a week, here are some pictures of our first days in Budapest (with a few more posts of pictures to come). 

I am absolutely amazed by the history of this city.  The place above is called Heroes square.  During the time Hungary was under communism, all these statues were boarded up (amazing that they remained standing) and there was a statue of Stalin put up instead.

If you happen to be curious and want to read some of the history, my mom has written about it in previous posts - here and here

It's been fun to explore the city and places together...even with naps limiting our time out and about.  


Clint and I had a solid afternoon walking everywhere and exploring by ourselves.  This was wonderful.
