Dear Family, Thursday November 13th 2008
This morning we got up early and took off for the train station. After doing some homework on the train, we arrived in Budapest, dropped our stuff off at the hotel, and then went on a tour of the city. The tour was moderately interesting, but we're all exhausted, so when we stopped in the biggest Synagogue of Europe, and the second largest in the world, we nearly all fell asleep in our seats, much to the dismay of our tour guide. It was awful. We just could not help ourselves.
After 4 hours we were finally free, pulled out money, and found somewhere to eat. We are currently vegging in the hotel room, and going to bed ridiculously early. I'm just trying to write a paper before losing consciousness. So yeah. I'm in Hungary, but Budapest is a much dirtier, scarier city than the others I've visited. The normal people walking by are fine, I just get a weird feeling walking by the beggars. They aren't like any others I've seen before.
Ok, I really have to get things done and go to bed, because we have an 8 hour tour tomorrow (WHOSE IDEA WAS THAT? IT'S THE STUPIDEST IDEA OF EVER HEARD OF! Why would you go to a city, and not give us time to discover it? The first time we'll have daylight to see the city for our own is Saturday, and we're leaving that day. Dumb.)
Good night!
Love,
Anna
