Budapest--One Last Time (Day 2)

The second day of our Budapest adventure was spent walking around Heroes' Sqaure, the Contemporary Art Museum, the City Park, the Vajdahunyad Vára, and Széchenyi Spa. It was a beautiful, warm day, which only helped add to enjoyment of walking around. We grabbed a quick sandwich at the museum and left for Debrecen that afternoon. We look forward to coming back to Budapest again someday and revisiting all our favorite places. Who know's the next time I'm here I might be with my own children showing them around. 


Breakfast of champions: croissant and cappuccino.  

Ben's breakfast: an omelet and tea.

Is that painting glaring at me? 

Interesting modern art in the lake.

Castle on a little island built for the 1898 World Fair.

We thought this restaurant had a funny name.

A very picturesque park.

Széchenyi Spa built in 1909, is the largest spa in Europe.
It has 3 outdoor pools, 3 sauna rooms, and several indoor pools
at different temperatures.
