So, it's our last night here in Budapest and we just got back from the Turkish baths which were AMAZING! The steam room was so intense you could barely breathe, the sauna had three levels of heat, and the baths were built in the 17th century. I'm sure Audrey will be a lot more detailed about this, but it was great.
Buda is really beautiful. We went hiking this morning and saw Buda castle and some of the monuments around. We then headed to Pest for some serious shopping. And by serious, I mean seriously touristy. Pest seems to be a lot less...mountainous? It's flat. Buda is like hiking through hell. It was also hot an sunny (also my version of hell). Thus, I am (again) totally sunburnt.
When we were around Buda castle we had Hungarian Goulash. Apparently the REAL goulash is very similar to vegetable soup with a lot of paprika... No noodles. Hmph. It was really good though.
That was very exciting. Ummm yeah... not much else up in here...
Our hostel is wonderful. No bedbugs, only 4 people, right in the middle of the main street downtown in Pest, no bedbugs, great bathroom, free breakfast, no bedbugs, really nice guy who runs the place--he's like our age. Umm... no bedbugs.
Tomorrow it's off to Vienna!
