A Week Gone By!

Wow already a week has flown by! I went to the local spas, which are huge pools similar to Glen-wood. It is nice to go swimming because it is extremely hot here! 38 C and almost 97 F! I am not really used to the humidity so I am sweating like a pig! I have also gone to a local concert which was fun and the music was very good. A famous Hungarian band called Republic played. Last Saturday was a celebration of their independence and we went to a huge festival! I have pictures of everything but my camera is being weird so I will put pictures up soon!
Other than that I have just been bonding with the family and that is turning out amazing :) Emi (my host mom) and I pick vegetables and fruit out of the garden together, as well as then cook together! The food is amazing and we have homemade soup before every meal, which I love! Dori, Lajos, Emi and I often laugh at my Hungarian as well! Speaking hungarian is very difficult, so much harder than I thought it was going to be! I can just say a few little words here and there, but hopefully I will start to pick up more of the language soon! School starts next Thursday!!

The festival had beautiful floats made of flowers (viragok)!!!



Native dancers from other countries and traditional dancers from Hungary!
