hungary trip and such…
So I have been a horrible slacker about posting about this, but am finally getting around to posting about my trip to Hungary. To summarize, I loved Hungary. Budapest was a beautiful city, the food was great everywhere we went (had the best pizza I had had in years, was very similar to NYC-style, which I sadly never really find in albany), was pretty easy to get around speaking English (though I am currently working on learning Hungarian), Vac (a small town outside Budapest that we stayed in for a few days) was beautiful. The guy who ran the bed and breakfast we stayed at there was a very interesting character. It was great to see several different areas of the country and I loved being able to work with customers and consultants in person after talking to them on the phone for 3 or 4 years. I was very spoiled being able to get more work done there than is typically possible over conference calls. It was a wonderful trip and I really hope to be able to get back there again!
If you are interested, pictures from Budapest are here (first few are just the view outside my hotel in Budapest, could see part of the Danube) and the pictures from Vac are here. This photo of Parliament is one of my favorites:
