My mom made a request for a picture of my roommates and I. This is the closest thing I have to it as two out of three of my roommates are in this picture. Yep. Just me and my friends sitting in front of the Danube.
I also have a few comments on Budapest:
1. Our internet connection is very slow, especially when everyone decides to use it at the same time.
2. I love this city, but still feel like a tourist.
3. I am getting excited for potential weekend trips we've been talking about. I'm going on a day trip to Eger, Hungary tomorrow.
4. I can and did buy things from a market in Hungarian, specifically peaches, onions, and banana chips. (Huzzah!)
5. Peaches in Hungarian is oszibarack and reminds everyone of Barack Obama.
6. My allergies are bugging me a LOT (and I'm not the only one).
7. It's hard not to snack when you have European chocolate, delicious bread, and nutella at your fingertips.

Seven is a good number to stop at. It's our room number. To request the key, we say "Kerem a hetes kulcsot."
Ok, that's enough for tonight

Claire!!! I hope you're having a fantastic time in Hungary! It sounds like you are! I never realized how hot it would be in Egypt and at times I've wished I was in Hungary with you, but Egypt is pretty awesome. I'll try to keep up with your blog this semester. Have a great time!
