Hungary

Weather is holding out...sunny and mild again today...perfect for the horse show this afternoon.  It's amazing what they
can train the horses to do...in one event, a man was riding on 10 horses-yes 10- by standing on the last 2 horses and calling out
commands.  Not to be outdone by the riders with the synchronized whips, whirling around ....( of course, whips do not
touch horses, but are quite loud cracking near their heads).  There were several rider demonstrations, games and 
races.....easy to see they all have done this a zillion times!
Countryside is very flat; vast farmlands, with maize, sunflowers and paprika....must be colorful in full bloom....the fields
were just cut a week ago. 
Took a short walking tour around this small town square and had an organ recital in the church. Don't know how in the world
the local folks make a living, besides tourism and farming.  
We'll be glad o get off on our own tomorrow in Budapest and leave the group behind.
