More Budapest

We started our last full day in Budapest by walking to Parliament. To say I was an awe was a complete understatement.




Unfortunately, when I asked if we could go in, we were told "no," so instead, we sat in the grass and listened to a military marching band.

We then went on a boat cruise around the Danube. The bar area of the boat was air conditioned (a rarity in Budapest), so we may or may not have spent the majority of the cruise in there.

 

We ended the day by heading to the Great Market Hall (a huge market selling everything from fruits and veggies to Minions t-shirts) where we stocked up on souvenirs for our people at home.



On our way home, we discovered that signs in Budapest are very graphic.
Nothing left to the imagination here.
We also discovered a cool wine festival happening outside of St. Stephen's Basilica. So we spent our evening people-watching and having our last tastes of gelato.
