Budapest

Hallo!

On Friday evening around 11 pm we arrived to Budapest, Hungary. We went straightly to our hostel, which was called Good Mo. We were in a all-girl-room with 10 other girls. Btw there was only one shower for all of us! :D The hostel was good, but the breakfast was just ridiculous, we have never experienced such a bad one! (for example the bread was not eatable anymore..)

 The plan for the night was to have a pub crawl, which was supposed to start already at 10.30 pm, but surprisingly we were a bit late..:D Eventually we left for the pub crawl after midnight! The cost for it was 15€ and it included 1 hour of free drinking in the first bar and 1 free shot in each of the three bars.

The pub crawl started in a pub quite near to our hostel, so we all walked there together. This was the first time that we were out of the hostel, so we tried really hard to remember the way we walked there so we wouldn't get lost.....you can guess how it turned out in the end...:D:D (we arrived to our hostel at 6 in the morning by taxi.................)

All in all the pub crawl was nice, but actually not really worth the 15€. Still we had such a great time, getting to know new people and talking in German!

The next morning luckily we had time to sleep after our nightly adventures..:D Our walking tour of the city was supposed to start at 1 pm, but actually it started at 1.30 pm. The tour guide was a bit weird..she explained about half an hour of the tradition alcohol drinks of Hungary, but then she decided we didn't have enough time to go and see the most beautiful view of the city..she was also in a hurry all the time, so we basically ran through the city and got only a short overview of the city. At one point we actually lost her..she told us to walk towards the city and then just left and the whole group were wondering around, trying to find her:D:D And now pictures from the tour!

After the tour we wanted to do some shopping! We headed to the Vaci -street, which was supposed to be full of clothing stores. We found only few stores and didn't actually find anything, except Jenna bought a scarf from Zara :D We did find some souvenirs though, but that was all. Then we walked to the restaurant street to find a place to eat goulash! Luckily we found a place quickly. The food was really cheap like everything else in Budapest, our meals with drinds together cost only about 8€!

The soup was okay, but nothing special. At least we tried traditional Hungarian food!

After dinner we walked back to the hostel to get some rest before the boat party at 9.30 pm! 

The boat party also cost 15€ and it lasted two hours. The boat went back and forth on the river and we saw the beautiful sights in the night time! The party was really nice! It was something different to the usual parties we have had :D The boat had two floors, in the upper one you could just hang out and look at the view and in the downstairs there was a DJ playing and people dancing!

We were terrified that the first boat in the picture was going to be our boat, luckily our boat was behind it :'D

Nice pose! (riemuidiootit)

The beautiful Parliament at night!

After the boat party there was also an after party in a club but we were too tired so we went back to the hostel to get some sleep. In the morning we were scheduled to leave at 9.30 but surprisingly we weren't on time...There was some problem with the check-out from the hostel, so we managed to leave after 10 am. We made our way to Bratislava and more about that in the next post!

Bis bald!
