Before we left was, of course, a difficult time for Hungary which was taking the brunt of flight from Syria. We had a number of people express concerns about what we'd find in Budapest.
Basically, nothing.
As far as Budapest is concerned, there's nothing happening at all. And while I wouldn't say the Hungarians are on the Vietnamese scale of friendliness, they're no worse than, say, Parisians. We do dumb American things and they just smile and nod or shake their head or drop into English until we go away.
(Speaking of dumb Americans, boy, howdy have we seen a few on this trip. Some people just should not be allowed to leave their neighborhood at risk of offending every single person they meet on the road.)
I still feel a little bad that we came to the country when it was having such a hard time, but we clearly lucked out on the specific location.
As an added plus, we've gotten to see a lot of Vizlas. Popular breed here in Budapest.
