This is our first glimpse of Budapest on arrival at nearly 6 AM and something - Széchenyi Medicinal Baths. Well... actually we noticed all that steam quite from afar;)



Passing the colonnade of the building



The foyer of the Baths



And the inner yard, where the outside pools are situated. The sky is much lighter - for it took us time to get used to the temperature in our bathing suits and to dare pull out the cameras and take pictures;)


Photos by Tanya and Eugenia - I can't remember who took which...

Oh well, officially you can't check in, but sometimes they have free rooms, so they may let you in! You were with your luggage all this time?

Huh, when we were in Prague, it was T'Alien who made all photos, and in Vienna it was Era, so i'm good with getting photos from other people!

U-huh, that's it! In Prague, for example, we took our hotel rooms at 10 AM, and the rest of the day went wonderful! Here... the tour organizers were quite bad. My luggage was in the bus - so actually I could leave it and go strolling in Pest or bidding for tonight R&J tickets at Operett - but
a) I thought it wouldn't be nice to leave my luggage to girls, however light ma valise may be - and, as it is, to leave girls on half away
b) I was quite exhausted by the journey and scared stiff of the cold - so not in the mood of making such active decisions. However, the thought that I've lost my chance of visiting Operett and R&J and of having as much of nighttime Budapest as I like makes me miserable... Instead, when we finally got to the hotel and unpacked, I spent the evening at hotel bar writing about Mathilde and sipping dry red. Also not bad, but what just could have happened!

Poor you :(
Such tour organisation sucks, but as I understand, you had no choice? Maybe next time you can get individual tour and do whatever your want!

Well, I'd love to so much... But either I should find a job (which is pretty unlike as long as I have my university schedule) - or I ensure my parents that I really need that much money to go to Budapest for an individual tour (you know, they're are slightly against this whole musical and/or Hungary idea)

So... tell me there's a chance Egyházi comes to Ukraine pretty soon;)

Hmm, I don't think how with Budapest, but you can go to Vienna with individual tour, and so as you haven't been there (I don't mean this one day), your parents may agree with it. How do you think? Or how about studying in Vienna for 2-3 weeks as you did in Munchen? And Budapest is so close that there's no problems to go there for 3 days at weekend.

Yeah, for sure! And the cast of Operettszinhaz will go to Russia, how about these chances? ))

Actually I am looking for similar courses in Vienna - for I've heard some people hearing some people take them))) But Goethe, which I am so connected to, works only in Germany. However... there's time before summer, is it not?)

BTW, today happened a most unexpected thing: I thought of phoning Goethe in case "probably there will soon be another term... probably I will take another term..." - and they told me the course began today, there were still places. So I came there, and wrote a test, and a composition, and told two ladies about das Oesterreichische Kaiserreich and our beloved Kaiserin and Uwe - finally they DID know something about Uwe, if not about Pia and Maya... - Uwe as der Tod... So tomorrow at 4:30 PM my new course B 2.1 starts!

Operettszinház will be in Russia! I will perform some special ritual to send Szabó to you.
Ehrmm... how about learning the Hungarian lines for "Nein, ich moechte leben, ich bin so jung um auszugeben, etc." - or "Schwarzer Prinz, warum bleibst du nicht hier" and singing them loud? I mean you. For in Kata's case it brought Szabó around... maybe would be useful...

Just ask Era, she studied for a month in Vienna :)

Yay for course! It's cool but how are you with time when uni begin? B2 is cool, I hope I finish with A2 sooner or later...

Operettszinház will be in Russia! I will perform some special ritual to send Szabó to you.
O rly? I will remember it!

Girl, if I sing something loud - doesn't matter on which language - no one will never ever come to Russia! :)))

I think I'll try asking her:)

As for my uni - there will be two whole lessons before the end of the holidays, and the term lasts only to the end of March... I think I'll manage. For I miss the sound of German and some healthy German conversation soooo much...

Szilveszter is weird;) The weirder you make it, more probably he comes!

I want to change my Deutschkurs, I'm not satisfied with it, but I thing I'll wait till summer and then find smth more intensive like 5-days-a-week course. Maybe I'll have a possibility to end with B1 in summer and than start B2.

Hmm, oh well, you have a point. I hope you'll hear me when I come to Kyiv, to tell me if it's wierd enough? )))) Sometimes I sing very loud! Even on Hungarian, though...

Let us make smth really wierd!) Teljes a sotet, with you as Sarah and me - realizing one of my dreams - as von Krolock;) Now that you do study Hungarian...

Yes, I do study, but we learn much simpler words then our favourite vampires do! Don't you know, such as 'This is a table, the table is in the room. It is brown. It is a flat. In this flat lives a teacher. The teacher is...'
And nothing about Totale Finsternis, not even a word!

Ah, that doesn't matter:) - I do not speak Hungarian at all, I only sing.
And if you learn Finsternis - you will start recognizing so many familiar words everywhere! For example, this Kétség és ábránd - and "hol a kétség elég" ;)

Where's this "hol a kétség elég" from? As I inderstand it can be translated as... ehm, 'where's enough doubt' or what? I understand these words but can't get a sense.

Now I begin to find familliar words (mostly simple) in R&J, it's cool!

Literally - my online translator says it means "where the doubt burns", that's the line which is analogous to "Zwischen Abgrund und Schein" (ah, again Abgrund...)

Btw, give me a link to this on-line translator :)

(ah, again Abgrund...)
Yes, but Schatten is still more popular!

Just pay attention from which language to which you're going to translate before clicking on the "fordit" button
