Lake Balaton
We had a very nice 3 day weekend down at Lake Balaton (a two hour drive from Budapest). Agi's brother Miki and I played some tennis, we hiked in the hills and checked out some very nice views from various forts used to fight off the invading Turks hundreds of years ago. Our bambino was a real trooper and enjoyed picking little weed flowers when placed in the grass. Several days ago Agi and I watched "Along Came Polly" again because we had enjoyed it so much the first time -- mainly because I remind Agi of Ben Stiller's character (especially when here in Budapest). Ben plays a risk averse insurance analyst who knows exactly how dangerous it is to eat nuts from a bar, walk over a manhole cover and (initially) can't compete out on the salsa dance floor. A little crass but very entertaining.
