Finishing our time in Budapest.

I have missed out posting here for a couple days. We have been surfing the waves of magic and I have not taken the time to reflect. We leave tomorrow (sat) for a couple days in Madrid before flying to GDL. Budapest has been wonderful. It was everything I had hoped Vienna would be and so much more. Its a real city with grit and culture. Its clean, seems efficient and is alive with art. The public transportaion system is unlike any I've used, very clean, always on time and extensive. And free if you're over 65.
The parks are amazing, full of art and entertainment. The only negative we have experienced is the prices of food, while varied and delicious is a little more expensive than necessary and not a terrific value, on the other hand, our airbnb was very affordable.
Im sad to leave, but the world is large and time keeps stealing away.

Edit: when I say the public transport is free, I mean there is no ticket or procedure. At all. You just hop on/hop off. Such a joy.
Like a lot of metros that dont use turnstiles, they do have ticket verification people spot checking for tickets. If you do get asked, ID with age is all you need.

I'll add photos 🥰
