Advent

Adventi koszorú

This is an advent wreath with one candle representing each of the four Sundays preceding Christmas. My mom usually buys this wreath and every sunday she lights one of the candles.

Fashion of socialism

fashion

There is an interesting exhibition in the Budapest History Museum about the fashion of socialism. They write on their website:

“Our exhibition looks back upon the four decades of state controlled fashion, the years from the fifties to the end of the eighties.”

More info on the exhibition you can read here.

Óbudai Gimnázium

Óbuda

The entrance of an old Highschool in Óbuda. We call general highschools as gimnázium in Hungary but those which are giving you a profession, are rather called “middle schools” (középiskola).

Ferihegy

Budapest - airport

The airport of Budapest is called Ferihegy. Like a week ago I was waiting here in the early morning for my flight and had fun with taking photos. Budapest has two airports for international flights, very close to each other. Ferihegy 1 is rather for cheap flights, and Ferihegy 2A and 2B is for the regular international flights. We do not really have internal flights. Small country, small aircraft:)

TDK

Budapest

Is it grey..or rather dark blue? These special colors drew my attention while I was walking the post office to pay my bills (kill bill):) at the Bajcsy-Zsilinszky street. Lately I do not make thematic excursions for the Budapest DP since I have limited time. But any time I go out and see something eye-catching I take a photo:)

Tramway

Tramway in Budapest

An interior of a tramway in Buda. To be honest I like the older tramways better then the fancy new Siemens Combinos. The old ones are more noisy, their floors are high which is not practical for wheelchairs or for young mom’s with strollers but they bring a special mood to the city. And in Budapest every tramway is yellow:)

Theme Day: Bridges

Fog in Budapest

It was not too hard to find a photo for the Theme Day today:) Budapest has wonderful bridges which looks great even in the gray November (December).

Look at different bridges all around the world and have a nice weekend!:
