just a quick post..we went to one of the famous budapest baths today..it was definitely different.. the building is from the 16th century and very beautiful and the hot baths felt good on our very sore muscles after that hike. it was mostly older people, old men playing chess on the side of the pool, and just seemed like a lot of local people go there. they have medicinal baths, sulfur baths, steam rooms, WICKED hot saunas....it was pretty cool. tomorrow we are taking a night train to venice...that is unless this supposed train strike that is happening in budapest tomorrow doesnt throw us off too much. keep your fingers crossed for us! then from venice to milan to meet the parents! next post....italy!!
