I was able to visit the small village of Szentendre which is just outside of Budapest, on the Danube. |

A night view of the Chain (Sz�chenyi) Bridge from the Buda side of the Danube. On its Pest side, lies the impressive Gresham Palace apartments which were recently renovated into a luxury hotel. |

|
Roman aqueducts on the road to Szentendre. There is a larger area of stone ruins just up the road from the aqueduct ruins as you head north. |

A typical Hungarian meal is hearty. The dish in front of me is stacked with various meats and condiments. |

I like dogs. European dogs have a distinctly different demeanor than American dogs. This dignified fellow was waiting for his elderly master outside of the local post office. |
