... arrived, having eaten lunch. phuh.. tiring things over?
anyhow, yesterday - after a number of affairs - I collected my Babelda sister from the airport at around 9 and having fed her - at HER expense - we set off for Bp by train - at least when it finally came. Half journey was enjoyable, since we owned the whole train, but in the second half we were joined by a funny looking - and disgustingly smelling - fellow who was kind enough to sit right behind my back, so that he got a perfect view of.. "george cloony" :) [sry guys, who don't understand this] ney ney, of my Baba.
The fellow cockroaches with whom I share my flat were lovely enough to welcome my friend, one running across the front hall a long path towards the kitchen. He was tragically killed after this glorious entrance and the funeral was held in the toilet.
We had a late supper while I was applying my new curtains (a bit too short in the end, coz I forgot the size of my window. to be more appropriate, I lost the paper on which I'd written it :)) and I dare say they look splendid.
Baba's phone, a typical German "person" woke us at 7 with the usual cruelty, and I was slightly reminded of a former occasion when a sharp voice had greeted us, shouting "AUFSTEHEN!!!" [again sry for those who dont get this :)]
WE had a run, and got away with just a LITTLE worrying concerning whether we'll miss the train or not. Train journey is hardly worth mentioning, afterwards we were greeted by dad and some minutes later Baba was introduced to the apple of the family's eyes, our most popular member, Micike/Judi/Gücülke/Géza, call her however you wish.
This was followed by a bit of packing and trying on of dresses, a bus journey, and then the luuuuuunch.. (a greatly desired one).
Now, that our babies are not growing bigger any longer in the belly, we feel quite ready to visit Maros river bank and swim in the dirt of the dirtiest river ever existed (ok, not QUITE right... at least I will not admit it, otherwise tüchtig germans MIGHT not go into it).
I must also apologize for the lack of posts in the following days, for we are going on a 4 day trip around Transylvania and south-east Hungary. Hopefully afterwards we can provide you with a long and satisfactory review of this trip.
Hello, this is Baba speaking. I wanted to tell that
a) the cat's name is JUDI
b) it's hot here
c) I started a collection of mosquito bites. I've got one from BP, one from Szeged and one from Makó so far.
d) nem vagyok éhes anymore! :)
Makó city of onions :) [no proper photo found online of the city]
