The view from our hotel window at the Intercontinental Budapest

Budapest

So after last years family trip to Prague this year we wanted the same but different!

Looking to the south and east of Prague threw up a few options but ultimately we settled on the Hungarian capital city of Budapest.

Looking through the guidebook, in a lot of respects it looks very similar to Prague straddling a large river (in this case the Danube) with the newer town on one side and the older town (complete with castle on the hill) on the other and lots of pretty bridges.

We stayed at the Intercontinental Budapest and I mention this only because our hotel room had the finest view I have ever seen out of a hotel room window.

With our hotel right in the middle of everything we had 3 days to explore and discover so the following morning we were up and away not knowing quite what we would find because after weeks of planning, I left the guide book on the sofa back home. Read more

In The Land Of The Northern Lights

I was sent a link to this the other day. It’s a time lapse film of the Northern Lights taken in Northern Norway near a town called Tromso by a guy called Ole Christian Salomonsen.

Full details can be found HERE but I really recommend that you pull up a chair, set this to full screen and enjoy for a few minutes as it really is a joy to watch and clearly rewards the hard work that has been put into its creation.
