30 May 2023 – Second day in Budapest and more wandering amongst the classic architecture and open air shopping, with a natural pull toward a familiar sight.

The James Joyce now makes it 8 countries where we have had a pint of the black in an Irish pub – and still a couple more stops on this trip…

Back to the walking – again the architecture is amazing here…this is some shots of the Opera House – could only peek in on the lobby…

That was along the way to our scheduled pub crawl, as was a cool outdoor mall area full of bars and restaurants called the Gozsdu udvar- we chose the Spiler, for some more Hungarian goulash and beer…

Then to the peak of the evening – guided pub crawl around Pest, where we hit several night spots, free shot at each, brief entertainment when necessary, and met some fellow travelers in from Germany.

One more day tomorrow before we head to Czechia.
