"If you come from Paris to Budapest, you think you are in Moscow, but if you go from Moscow to Budapest, you think you are in Paris." - Gyorgy Ligeti

So that promise I made about posting every week quickly fell through. Oh well, new year, new resolutions! Except that I have sneakily figured out a way to turn back "blog" time to December 3rd. While this may be confusing, it helps alleviate some of my guilt so tough luck to those who like timely and accurate posts!

Us with "Buda" behind us. This view reminds me a lot of Prague Castle. 

Since the last post, we have spent a weekend in Budapest, Hungary, Phil has traveled to Bangalore, India, we've frequented the Stockholm Christmas Markets way too many times, and we also had a 3 week holiday respite in the U.S. But first things first, Budapest!
