Oooh, Budapest! It was a long but memorable day. When we first arrived we went to the Sweets Days chocolate and sweets festival in Buda Castle. Free Samples!!

Then we went sight seeing around the Pest side of the Danube. We went around Parliament (we didn't go in but I plan to on another day), a nice park that I'm not sure of the name where we saw the eternal flame in honor of the 1956 revolution, then to Andrisis Utca (sp??) where there was another street festival and horse galloping in Heroes Square.
