Eger home of the Bikaver! (Bull's Blood Wine!)



Daddy and Ethan at the Castle Gate



After a nice sleepover at Endre and Maki's we went home packed our bags and headed to Eger for a long holiday weekend (March 15- Independence Day in Hungary).  We got there in the evening and checked in. Daddy was interested in seeing the Valley of Beautiful Women, but alas there were none there, except for mommy!  Mommy and Daddy tried many of the Eger Bikaver wines, Ethan at times felt left out so we gave him a finger full to try.  We strolled around the city and Ethan chased the birds in the park.  We visited the main church in Eger, the castle and it's surroundings. 

Ethan got his first taste of Hungarian ice cream "fagylalt" and absolutely loved it. Rick got sick on our last day and mommy and Ethan made a midnight run to the pharmacy for some Panadol and antinausea medication which ended up being benedryl!  Our trip back on the train was alittle hectic as Ethan wanted to explore the entire train.  He befriended a little Hungarian girl who played with him and watched Toy Story in english with him.
