First Full Day in Budapest

5/19/08 Early start for some traditional Hungarian breakfast at the hotel. It wasn't too bad. Sat through several lectures over international education. We had a nice walking tour of the Buda side of the river, going to the castle area. It was a pretty cool, at least what remains of it (it was a German hide-out in WWII and most buildings were bombed to rubble. After the tour: more orientations and another dinner at a fancy restaurant with some fantastic, live jazz music.
