The mall next to our hotel had a lot of American stores

Ashkey was really happy that what she bought at the mall store was actually chocolate milk.

We arrived in Budapest this afternoon (12:30 pm which is 6:30 am home time); everyone's a little tired from not sleeping much last night. Budapest is full of lovely bridges crisscirssing the Danube River, and it's old ethnic history is evident in the stonework and statues we see. Tomorrow we sing a mass and later oerformance at St Stephens Basilica.

Clare and I just finished practicing our Slovenian and have discovered we're not very good without being able to hear it spoken.  We are looking forward to several key things in each country such as:  Budapest baths, the old vestiges of communist statues, and several other `alternative` tour sites.
