Dress, Forint bills, Food, Street Musician


We walked from the hotel to Westend Shopping Mall. It was a long walk but since it was cold, I didn’t perspire or get tired. I just kept going, a little excited to reach 10,000 steps.

I bought a red printed dress for Theo’s baptism.
The store only accepted forint in cash so I went to a money exchange located on the lower level.

Sugarbird fashion store

Sugarbird is a local brand and the dresses are made in Hungary.

Clothing racks displaying bold red and black patterned garments.
We were buying a maleta and paying in cash when the sales lady told me some of my bills were old and no longer accepted by stores. She showed me the old and the new bills.
Two 2000 Hungarian Forint banknotes held in hands.
I couldn’t remember if these old bills came from the money exchange, or these were bills I’ve been keeping from my visit here in 2015.
Two hands holding Romanian 500 lei banknotes.
Nonstop bombardment of food

I have a white blouse I bought in 2015 very similar to this. I bought this blue one on this visit.
Traditional embroidered shirts and vintage tea sets displayed together.
It’s very safe to promenade along the Danube River near our hotel.
Oh my Buhay in Budapest

I always give to street musicians. Kahit small amount lang I want them to feel appreciated.

My husband didn’t want to come with me to cross to this side of Budapest again. Galing na daw kami dito sa Castle Hill the last time bakit pupunta pa uli kami. When I told him I would go by myself, maiwan na lang sya sa hotel, para maka rest sya, he decided to come with me. Sama na rin sya.

The most popular Catholic Church in Budapest is St. Matthias Church.

The 35 minutes waiting time to go inside St. Matthias Church felt like two hours long because it was so hot outside and no shade.
