Budapest Prague in Pictures

Here is the rest of our trip in pictures. I didn't take a whole bunch because many of the sites didn't allow indoor photos without a fee and I'm unwilling to pay the fee for pictures that wouldn't turn out. I, therefore, left my camera at the hotel most days.

Suffice it to say we had an enjoyable vacation. We had fun with Zumi and the Good One despite being with Zumi and the Good One. J/K don't get mad at me Zumi and the Good One!

So here is Budapest and Prague in pictures.

The Botel. A cool concept but we only stayed one night. Sorry Zumi


The Hungary Parliament and Swell


The Hungary Parliament without Swell


Inside Parliament




The Good One and Zumi on the hop on hop off tour bus


Hero's Square


I'm lucky aren't I?


Swell with Anonymous (looks a lot like death to me)


Food (on a bridge)


Funicular


For some reason red wine was dripping out of this guys mouth


Stained glass window in a church on Castle Hill


The four of us in Budapest


Statue in monument park


Monument to a fellow who was martyred by being put in a barrel of nails and pushed down this hill


Budapest


Prague






Swell on the clock tower (an elevator went all the way to the top! But we walked)


View from the top


World famous astronomical clock
(people stand around waiting for the clock to chime. It is very neat but after watching it I overheard a woman turn to her friend and say "let's make it a point to NOT do things this stupid on the rest of our trip".)




2.5 hour drive from Prague is an old town that has become a UNESCO world heritage site due to its oldness. Here it is.






It comes complete with a really cool castle and an even cooler theater. Here is the castle



Here is a link to the rest of the pictures (not as many as Romania). Click on the Botel

Very cool pictures. I really, really liked the UNESCO Site taken through the circle. Good shot.
