Hey everyone, no pics today but just a quick note to tell you what we have been up to in Budapest. It is really great here, the wine and food are sooo much better than anything we have experienced yet. As you can imagine, we have mostly been drinking and eating!! We have had some of the best wines we have ever had before for about 6.00 a bottle. We went to the baths yesterday, which was really cool, one of the pools had a really stong current that pushed you along in circles and that was funny. Bunch of bobbing heads flying by in circles. We also found one of the nicest markets we have ever seen for produce. Granville Island is starting to seem pretty small after some of the places we have found. I lucked out at the market and got a free lunch. I ordered a cabbage roll (yummy) and then tried to pay but someone else paid for me by accident, I think, as no one wanted my money-- ha ha. Off to the train station now to attempt to buy some tickets. Should be rather interesting as Hungarian is not the easiest language to deal with-- some of the words have about 40 letters, none of which are pronounced the way I want to pronounce them... makes german look like a piece of cake. Thanks for all the messages and comments from everyone! Happy Wedding to Trevor and Claudia, wish we could be there! We'll toast you tmo!! xx Heather and Colin
