eger - with lektors!

we didn't choose the best weekend to go to eger, as it was wet and cold, but we had some fun!

here are tara and kim getting some kürtőskalács. kim is new to hungary this year so this was her first taste of the doughy goodness!

the eger castle

some pathway around the castle

kim and tara were a little loopy

the skyline - that pencil thing is called a minaret. a skinny little tower

church and such

aww, hungary

the first wine cellar we went to (mold on the walls, coins pressed into the mold)

second cellar

third cellar, gypsy music to set the mood

wine lady pouring into my mouth, dry white wine (not my thing)hot wine is all the rage in eger. here is a bird... dispensing it through with his beak

this was us for most of the weekend
i'm glad we went. there was a lot of climbing and walking in the rain, but there were good experiences, good food, and good company that more than made up for it.
