Lauantai 🇫🇮 - Szombat 🇭🇺 - Saturday 🇬🇧

Day off

Little did I know the order and timing in which the day's events would unfold after waking up. When we finished our morning routines - breakfast, walking with Abby, and having the much-needed coffee - we decided to visit one of the bike stores I'd found online the other day. At 8:45 a.m., we headed for Budapest and checked the store, where the guy, who seemed to be the owner, was helpful and guided us through the selection, explaining which bike would be the best choice. However, he seemed a little too convincing and kept pointing out the advantages of the bikes he had in store. The bike I had seen on the internet yesterday wasn't available, leading me to suspect that he wanted to sell off the inventory quickly. Since we made no deal, I was okay with leaving the store and not purchasing anything hastily. There are other brands to check before sacrificing a pretty hefty sum on my next bike - should I decide to ride one.

When we returned home, Ági suggested we hike up to our favourite spot before our friends's visit, so right after jumping into our hiking attire, we set out on our midday walk. The weather was beautiful, warm and sunny, with clear skies, and we didn't encounter anybody on the track. However, on our way home, our friend called to let us know he was in front of our house. We agreed to meet halfway, and then we went out to eat. We went to our favourite restaurant, Christine, and had a delicious lunch there. Ági had salmon with asparagus, and the garnish was mashed potato with beetroot. Our mate had "csülök" with German cabbage and "röstli", and I had beef stew garnished with gnocchi seasoned with sheep-cottage-cheese. The coffee and the dessert at "szamos" was also delicious, so we returned home with full stomachs.

After Ákos left, I gave Ági a foot massage and watched NOAH, a Hollywood movie. It was okay, but it won't be one of my favourite films. Then only the usual happened, a ten-minute slumber for me, some light dinner, Abby's evening walk, and the edition of my blog entry.

Keskiviikko 🇫🇮 Miðvikudagur 🇮🇸

My new bridge is in my mouth. It took the doc almost an hour to meticulously and precisely fit it in and cement it. I wasn't allowed to eat for three hours, and I still can't chew anything on the left side of my jaw. However, my dental features are ship-shape-and-shiny. Only one tooth is left: they need to replace the old filling. Once it's done, I'll have a Hollywood-type smile. Before the dental care, I went through the lesson plan I'd prepared the other day for today. When I returned home from the dentist, I took Abby for her afternoon walk and drove to Budapest to teach. Before arriving at where I taught, I popped into a store to buy some "kifli" for later and four "Túró Rudi" to appease my rumbling stomach. After teaching, I hurried back home, grabbed two "kifli", some butter and plum jam, and ate like a king. It was already pitch dark when we returned from our evening walk with Abby. I hate the early dusks. However, summer tries

Goodbye 2023 - Hello 2024

2023 has been an interesting year for many reasons. There were ups and downs, good and bad times, laughter and tears, but most importantly, us being together. During the last few years, I've noticed that we can overcome any obstacles together, which is a fantastic and soothing thought. Come 2024, for better or worse, together we will solve everything. May the world be a better place in 2024.

GRAZ - day 1 - 🇦🇹

We are in Graz, as Ági’s linguist conference starts tomorrow. We woke up early in the morning. I had to de-ice the cars, which took an hour. Once I finished the job, Ági took Abby to the dog sitter, and I packed my things for the weekend. Abby didn’t want to stay at the dog-sitter - poor thing - but Ági’s callousness conquered her temper tantrum. Travelling to Austria is always a pleasure. The roads were clean, the traffic was not heavy, and taking the scenic route was a brilliant decision. We could have opted for the Balaton route, but the northern direction seemed a better choice. We stopped at an unknown little village, where the shopping mall was phenomenal. We grabbed a coffee and stretched our legs because sitting in a car for hours is not the best thing in the world. Anyway, we arrived at the hotel - which looks great - safe and sound. The room is small but clean, however, the area is a bit dodgy. It’s close to the main train station, which attracts many people, so it is a busy
