Budapest, Gypsy Musicians, Horses, Hungary, Kecskemét, Memoirs, Photography, Puszta

The Hungarian cowboys with their amazing horses.

We both really enjoyed our small bus tour out into the Hungarian Countryside. We went to visit the small city of Kecskemet and a Hungarian farm where we saw the most amazing horsemanship.

Kecskemet (pop about 100,000) is approximately 50 miles from Budapest.

The entertaining Gypsy musicians that played for us during our traditional Hungarian three course lunch.

Budapest by Night, Citadella, Heroes' Square, Hungary, Panorama, Photography, Travel and Tourism

Photograph of Heroes’ Square, Budapest, Hungary again taken from the bus when it was stopped.

We were totally charmed by Beautiful Budapest and especially Budapest at night. So we had to see it all again. While on our river cruise we’d viewed this beautiful city by night as we’d sailed in on the Danube. Now it was time to see it from the land on a “Green Bus” tour.

Black and White, Budapest, Colour, Hungary, Photography, Taken from a Sightseeing Bus

Black and White Photo of Parliament House, Hungary.

I took this in a rush while we were stopped at the Lights on our Night “Green Bus” tour of Budapest. I was actually rather amazed they turned out as well as they did. I’m just interested in what you think i.e. whether you prefer the coloured version or the black and white the best.

Budapest, Christmas, Holidays, Hungary, Memoirs, Photography

We did a lot of sightseeing in and around around Budapest on these buses. This was outside the Palace of Art at Heroes' Square.

Sorry everyone but the silly season is now beginning here in the land of Oz with lovely Christmas Parties and lots of other things to be accomplished. I hope you don’t mind but rather than write about the last few days of our European Holiday, I’ve decided to create a fairly simple Photographic Memoir instead of the usual longer stories.

I’ll just be posting a few photos each day for about a week or so. I do so want to have the opportunity to share our lovely last days in Budapest, Hungary. As you know it was an amazing surprise to me. There were so many interesting highlights. I do hope you enjoy them all as much as we did. After Christmas I’ll try to find some time to write the very last post about our somewhat eventful flight home to Australia.

I’d also like to wish you all a Very Happy Christmas and many happy times in the New Year. A big Thanks You to everyone who has been following our European River Cruising Memoirs in 2013. We’ve really enjoyed all of your encouragement along with your supportive and entertaining comments.

Michelle and D.B.
