Budapest

Unfortunately due to our late night we slept in, and didn't leave the hostel until just before ten in the morning. We got a train that left shortly before noon and arrived in Budapest at around three. Budapest is like a grubby version of Vienna, dirtier and more run-down. Things seem a bit more difficult to do, and people are more difficult to communicate with. The hostel was very difficult to find, as it is located in an apartment building and doesn't really have any signage. It is quite nice though, with large rooms and good ambience. We asked the owner of the hostel about traditional Hungarian restaurants to go to, and he recommended some for us. The one we went to was quite good, but I was not able to entirely finish my meal. We ended up going to bed early, so that we could have an early start the next day.
