Get Set...

In one week I'll be in Budapest! Excited & stressed - I need to figure out what to pack, make sure it's all clean (!), get cat food, make sure work is caught up... YIKES.

I have a pretty good idea of what I want to see and do in each city, though, so that's cool. I'm throwing in a little work in Budapest and meeting with someone from a pro bono organization there; it's good to have the opportunity to make connections. I'm also planning to hit the thermal spas a couple times... and eat a lot of food! In Bratislava we'll just wander & check out the sights. And in Vienna: beer, apfelstrudel, and the Hundertwasserhaus.

Oh, I can't wait....!

Get Ready...

A short ten days until I depart for Budapest (with a side trip to Bratislava & Vienna)! Hard to believe it's so close...

New for this trip: my wee little laptop! It will be going with me so I can take advantage of WiFi in cafes, etc. to blog.

Keep your eyes on this blog for the lowdown on the baths in Budapest, the beer in Bratislava, and the - oh heck, the beer in Vienna too. (And to see if I can manage to call it "Vienna" rather than "Wien!"
