Gun and Janne have gone home yesterday. Afterwards I had a few friends over for food and drinks prior to a theatre visit just round the corner. Füst Milán is not exactly my cup of tea, I have discovered last night. This 1920's-30's comedy of manners was tedious after a while, even though it took the mickey out of a ridiculous society mercilessly, which was spot on.
This Sunday, however, the morning dawned bright and Jutka and I departed to Dobogókõ in the Pilis Mountains for a hike and possible cross country ski trip. Unfortunately I left my my skis in Bér, so we just hiked instead. As you can see from the pictures it was a glorious winter wonderland, even though Budapest was without a snifter of the white stuff. Unfortunately, by the time we got up there the sun went as well, only to come out just before we got back.
Jutka allowed me to try her skis and I was rather wobbly on my pins. Fell over twice, so it was not a very promising beginning. I only spent 5 or 10 minutes on the skis, but I am determined that as soon as I can get myself a set of poles, I will try it again and this time on my own skis.
We are off to Bér tomorrow - we have not been away for this long for quite a while.
