Today marks the HALFWAY point of the summer ’23 portion of our adventures!

Széchenyi Thermal Bath
This morning we went to the Thermal Baths. It was in a big old building in a big park. It had the feeling that it was like part of a castle. There were big fountains and so many pools. There was a really hot pool that felt like a giant hot tub with a fountain that gave a very nice back massage. There was also another pool that was at a normal temperature and was really cool because it had like a small lazy river in the middle of it and because the lazy river was a circle there was a relaxing part in the middle of the lazy river. The only thing was that in the lazy river you had to walk instead of sitting in a pool floaty. There was also a lap pool but we didn’t go in it.
Waffles
Today we got some super fancy waffles as our halfway celebration of our trip. I got an oreo and vanilla ice cream waffle with whipped cream and strawberries on top. My dad got one that had a lot of fruit on it and my brother got one with a bunch of chocolate stuff. The cool part about the waffles was that the waffles were not pushed inward but they were pushed out like little bubbles.
Concert
We had originally bought tickets to a concert for tonight but the scheduling on the website when we bought the tickets was actually wrong and the concert was at 10:00pm and they didn’t let people under the age of 18 go in after 10:00pm. So instead we went to a street concert with a lot of different bands playing. They also had a bunch of games that we got to play while we waited for the next performers.
Tram along Danube River/ Dinner
After the concert, we got dinner at a Thai food place and then went to a park nearby to eat the food. Then we took a tram along the Danube River to see all of the pretty views and look at the water at night.
