Bin day

Budapest Winter

Wendesday is the bin-day in our street. We have to leave the recycle bin outside on the street and in the morning usually around 9-10 am they will come with a truck and they collect it. At times I forget about it and when I hear the noise of the truck I run like a crazy:)

Havanese – Momo

Momo

Our dog Momo resembles a Hungarian Puli. Actually he is a Havanese breed with a special black coat that is slightly wavy. In Spring, he loves being in the garden and exploring all the greens. He is a very harmonious, friendly and wonderful pet and we are both very glad to have him in our family!

This year, we (Zannnie and Zsolt) will offer to the winner a bottle of Tokaji Wine and the www.hungarystartshere.com portal offers one of their Hungary guide books in English.

The question of the 5th week is available here:

5. What is the name of the Monument at the Heroes’ Square?
