Budapest, Day 5, The Flea Market and the Parliament, October 20, 2018
After a brief rest stop at the apartment, we walked over towards the Parliament building, stopping for a nice lunch at the Budapest Bisztro just off Liberty Square.
After lunch which included a roast marrow bone, steak tartare (BJ) and roast duck breast (Alan), we walked over to Parliament and wandered around a little, including looking across the Danube to Buda, but it was very hazy and we didn’t get good photos. There was some interesting architecture around Parliament and quite a number of large statues.
We caught a tram right next to the Parliament Building and used public transport for the first time in Budapest. That dropped us off just a few blocks from the apartment. We walked back down one of the main shopping streets, Vasi, and then we were home. Tonight, we will have left over chicken paprikash from our cooking class.
Tomorrow we sleep in.
