AIT organized a weekend trip to Lake Balaton for us. Some background: Lake Balaton is the largest lake in central Europe and a popular vacation spot for Europeans. It is also wine country and produces a lot of white and rose wines. We went just as it was starting to warm up and the area was starting to wake up but before all the hoards of tourists showed up.
We stopped by a place for a bit for lunch. This is where I tried langos for the first time. Langos is just fried dough topped with cheese/garlic/sour cream/what have you. Basically fair food.
hurrhurr
The lake!
I dipped my feet in the lake! People copied me but complained because it was really cold. Weak.
We hiked up a hill! It was gorge. We lost a soccer ball. Definitely called that one.
Panoramic!
People!
Me!
Somewhere in there, there is a soccer ball.
More ruins!
We went wine tasting afterwards! Most of the wines tasted the same to me. Except one that was really expensive and risky to make because the grapes are picked late so it's really sweet. That wine was finom.
This is the view from the winery.
This is near the place where we stayed.
This is near the place where we stayed except at night time.
Oh! And the place where we stayed had a hot tub and sauna. I didn't go in the sauna. We played an excruciating game of psychiatrist. I ended the night hanging out and drinking wine from the winery. Interesting note: this was the only occasion in my whole stay in Hungary in which I actually vommed.
Do be careful
Dat view
On the second day we went up to this castle thing. It was pretty.
