exploring the pest in buda

Wow, its crazy that sooo much can happen in just two days. In 48 hours, I said goodbye to the man I love (that would be Andy if you are confused) and a dear friend (Jenny) and hello to an entirely new culture and group of people. I've spent the night on the Danube river (my hotel is a boat), enjoyed my first bowl of Hungarian cuisine (it was really cheesy), gotten lost in Pest, seen three amazing cathedrals, and learned much about European research life. Its crazy. I've taken pictures but I still haven't been able to find an internet connection strong enough to load them to picassa. I promise to load them as soon as I can. I also want to write more about how amazing these people are and the rich history I've learned in just two days. But we have to be at a dinner 20 minutes across town in 15 minutes. But since I can't share all of my experiences, I will leave you with a link to the wikipedia article on St. Stephen's Basilica.

Enjoy! I will post more once I can get more internet time.
