Excessive Travel Part I
Sorry for the lack of updates everyone but I have been traveling for what has felt like non stop for about a month now. So, I will first start with my travels with my mother and then I will post later on my travels with some of my fellow students.
My mom arrived in Budapest three weeks ago. While here I was delivered the best present of all, JIF peanut butter and Reeses peanut butter cups. I also took her around the city, went to the opera, took her to class, and had a wine and cheese party for her and all of my friends here in Budapest. She seemed to have a good time and the other students seemed to get a kick out of her as well.
From Budapest we went together to Belgium. We explored the city of Brussels, which was nice, and ate too much chocolate and attempted unsuccessful to drink the much too strong Belgium beer. We also went to the city of Brugges which is absolutely beautiful and one of my new favorite cities of Europe. If you are ever in Belgium you should definately go.
After Belgium we went on to Paris. Having been to Paris before I new what to expect, little help for the locals and a difficult time getting around. We did the typical tourist things there, went up the Eiffel Tower, went to the Louvre, ate crepes, and drank French wine (I'm starting to notice a trend but if you were traveling with my mother you would understand the need for so much alcohol). I left my mom and went back after two days in Paris, which I think is quite enough and headed back to what I now call home, Budapest.
(More pictures are on the way but for some reason they are not uploading correctly right now).
