memories of Hungaria - part four

an exeptional experience of swimming in caves; Medve having a splash in Miskolctapolca Cave Bath


the XIV century Castle of Diósgyőr, Diósgyőr being a district of Miskolc, remains one of the most important medieval monuments of Hungary


you can see the same castle on the reverse side of the current 200 Hungarian Forint banknote


almost a romantic journey by an antique small gauge railway through the National Park in Lillafüred; Lillafüred is a part of Miskolc and it is located some 12 km from its city centre


the waterfall in Lillafüred and Medvekoma exploring it


for more detailed descriptions of Miskolctapolca and Lillafüred visit Balint's blog.

Londonban

The time didn't stop and I had to go back to London on Sunday. I had a wonderful time there in Szombathely, with Balintam and his family.
I wasn't playing a big photographer during my little trip. I have only few pictures this time, but loads of fantasztikus moments captured in my mind. yes, i'm your barátnő now;) or rather, it is a sincere expression of my love to Magyarország, and even more to One Magyar:)

US in Graz, Austria
brief sightseeing of the city with "rose-tinted spectacles" on:)


Graz's "Old Town" is one of the best-preserved city centers in Central Europe, and in 1999 was added to the UNESCO list of World Cultural Heritage Sites. Graz was sole Cultural Capital of Europe for 2003. (Wikipedia, 2007)


traditional meets modern

three photos above were taken by Balint:)

unused water reserve in the small park in Szombathely


'antena' on the roof. i found it very interesting that time, but realised later that it is also a common view in Poland. yeah, haven't lived there for a while..


this one wasn't supposed to appear on my blog, but i think that it's just worth showing the way the dish is served! delicious Hungarian lunch - spenót főzelék (spinach creme-soup, mmmmmm:) prepared by Mrs.Horvát and the additives served by Bálint:)


the view from Medve's cave in Szombathely:)
the sky and the sun always look beautiful from there

the time will stop tomorrow

for Us, Medvekomam :)

yes, i'm going to see Bálint tomorrow and this is the only thing that counts for me now!
soon, as i set off for the land of delicious wine and sweet peppers, i will keep these old Polish (maybe not only Polish!?) sayings in my mind:

"happy people don't check the time"
& they
"look at the world through rose-tinted spectacles" ;)

(they always say the truth!)
