This post is my version about the volleyball event on the weekend. Couple of weeks ago we reported on the male waterpolo so now is time to show something different:) The event was sponsored by O.B. and to be honest I find these white “materials” a bit surreal. But O.B.viously the girls are beautiful!
The countdown has been started. Two more days to see the surprise!:)
Nincs ebben az O.B. reklámlufiban valami szürreális?
We went to the Vajdahunyad Vára City Park to watch the Volleyball Championship ‘live’. A number of selected models and tv celebrities kick-off the event as a start and there were supporters of their fans or maybe their friends who had behaviour like some ‘celebs’ also :) The fun to see are some hunky men (for me, zannnie) and 8 sexy cheerleaders (for zsolt ;) other than these professional volleyball players. I will upload a short clip soon meanwhile hope you get the feel of the vitality within this photo to kick start this Monday :)
The countdown starts today. A surprise is coming in 3 days!:)
Az igazságosság jegyében mivel a múltkor férfi vizilabda meccsre mentünk, most a női strandröplabdát néztük meg. Stílusosan a műjégpályán szervezték meg..de azért nem szervezték agyon, mert voltunk kb. 50 néző, abből 48 röplabdás, akik éppen nem játszottak meg mi ketten:) Pedig tök jó volt!
The blue evening sky, the blue Danube, the blue Parliament Building for a nice Sunday:)
És miután SimonDKing sárgával televilágította az oldalt a héten, vasárnapra gondoltam egy kék méltó zárás lenne:)
Hungarian inventions include the noiseless match (János Irinyi), Rubik’s cube (Ernő Rubik), and the krypton electric bulb (Imre Bródy). A number of other important inventions, including holography (Dennis Gabor), the ballpoint pen (László Bíró), the theory of the hydrogen bomb (Edward Teller), and the BASIC programming language (John Kemeny, with Thomas E. Kurtz) were invented by Hungarians who fled the country prior to World War II.
What are (some) of the inventions in your city (country)?
És a kedvencem Szentgyörgyi Albert a C-Vitaminnal kimaradt Zannnie felsorolásából.:)
Thank god in the last two days we get to experience a cooler weather. Its still hot, usually around 30 during the day but not that 40+ anymore (they said it may be back soon). I don’t know how many evidences we still need about global warming. The fact is, during the last winter we didn’t actually have winter, and nowadays we were experiencing 40+ degree Celsius which has never happened in Hungary before – this is more than enough to me. Is it possible that George Bush doesn’t visit the Budapest DP to see the evidences?:)
Végre legalább esténként vannak ilyen felhők, meg egy időre vége a 40 fokoknak, bár még nem akarom elkianálni. Azon szoktam gondolkodni, hogy még mennyi bizonyíték kell a globális felmelegedésre, hogy tényként kezeljük. Nekem már annyi is elég volt, hogy tavaly “technikai okok miatt” elmaradt a tél, most meg 40 fokok voltak, ami itt nem volt eddig divat. Lehet, hogy Georgo Bush nem látogatja a Budapest Daily Photo oldalt, hogy lássa mindezt?:)
Yes, this is my Budapest ;) This is one of my personal favourite of the Chain Bridge (Lanchid) and especially taking this shot after the sunset. It is because usually my SONY Cybershot ‘is not up to standard’ :) I hope you like this version of ‘Zannnie’s Budapest’ as much as I do.
Már megint egy híd:) Mondjuk én se tudok lejönni a hidakról Zannnie meg aztán végkép odavan értük. Úgyhogy egyelőre nem ígérhetem, hogy nem lesznek hidas képek.
VOTE for us!
Our guest for this week is SimonDKing.
I guess that’s what we have been missing here in Budapest nowadays. A real wet, fresh rain. It was like 7.30pm Tuesday when I was inspired to write this post for today and looking out of the window at that time, I was thinking there might a chance for some rain. So this photo in the post is a sort of DESIRABLE to me :)
Ápdét: legyőzve lustaságomat próbálok ismét magyarul is írni. Egyre több magyar látogatója van az oldalnak, hát megérdemeltek ennyi figyelmet. :) Szerintem ez a Szabadsághidas képet nagyon eltalálta Simon. Talán a Gellért szállóból fényképezhette valamilyen teleobjektívvel, mert nem csak ez a nedves, napos hangulat hanem a szög is nagyon egyedi. Vannak még figyelemreméltó képei a Flickeren a képra kattintva rájuk fogtok találni.

Here’s how to ‘Be our Guest Photographer‘:
On the Flickr, we have opened a group called Budapest Award Group where everyone can add his/her Budapest photos and thus everyone is free to the awarding of the ‘Budapest Award’ to any photos in the group. Hence, every week the most popular photo will be invited to be featured on the Budapest DP.
I’m not a person who is into ‘PINK’ but these pink flowers appealed to me :) I like their fresh and terrific look…
Posting in black & white maybe helps to cool down in this heat. They say that black color absorbs heat. Poooor nuns..
Someone told me she felt the ‘freedom statue‘ is holding a salmon :) It sounded really funny to me because she is holding a leaf. In this photo you can’t really see it very clearly since it is very small on the background, but if you click here you can see the it more clearly. To be honest, I really like the view up there in the night. So much so that I don’t mind going up there again and again…
THE ROLLING STONES concert in Budapest. 2007. july 20
A BIGGER BANG
Expectations for this European tour are running high, particularly in the light of the band’s highly popular and critically acclaimed North American tour. The “Bigger Bang” world tour began with a breathtaking performance at the Fenway Park Stadium in Boston. The critics were unanimous in their praise, and each leg of the tour since has been characterized by total catharsis and boundless energy.

Because of the heat in Budapest, the staff of the Puskas Ferenc Stadium and the health authorities of Budapest have prepared thousand bottles of mineral water to the audience and they are watering the arena continuously with water hoses, a measure which will help to prevent people from collapsing in the heat due to dehydration. The temperature is above 30 degree Celsius even in the night.
Have a nice weekend!:)
