23rd - 26th Nov, Budapest, Hungary

Well Budapest for me was AMAZING!!! We only got to spend 3 nights there but rest assured it was a place I wont forget in a hurry. I loved this place for one main reason really, it was a creative haven where a girl of my interests was in artistic heaven!!!. There were galleries, restaurants, theatre, the river, patisseries, monuments galore and crisp fresh air. It was fantastic. We busted out a City Tour on a bus, a trip to the Museum of Fine Arts (where Austrian Artist Hundertwasser a.k.a. my new personal idol! had an exhibition on the go), a dip in the Thermal Baths, a river cruise, a spot of public transport fare-evasion, a hungarian wining-dining experience and plenty of roams around the streets of Budapest in search of new sights. It was the bbbeeeessssttt!!!



St Stephens Basillica! One of the many amazing Chapels we stumbled across in our ventures across the continent!! Has to been seen to be believed....but wow!!!

Outside the Museum of Fine Arts where Hundertwasser had an exhibition on, this Austrian dude (who is now pushing up dasies in NZ) is my new personal art hero!!!


Mas most unfavourite form of art...which she found to be abundant in Budapest!

Schenzyi Thermal Baths, this place was great but a little daunting with the um....hairy hungarians!!

Beaut shot of the Houses of Parliament on a not so clear day.

Shot out the window of our Cruise-Liner, rain on the window gave an astonishing affect I think!!

Pic of the Chain bridge from Castle Hill side, looking into Budapest City Centre. Great shot dont you think?

Ok its happy hour again, we went onboard a dinner cruise, only we didnt do the dinner part. We packed our own feast complete with premixed drinks....ahhhh cheers!!!

Picturesque sites from the cruise down the River Danube on our night cruise.

Ma and I sometime in Budapest.
