Budapest on Fire
Some regular readers know I have a bit of a Hungary fetish (lived there, married there, vacation there, speak it badly, lots of Hunkie friends, etc.). Some readers may also know that Hungary has been gripped by political violence in the last few days. Sad. Disgraceful. Pathetic. No one dead. “It’s like a Fradi match,” says my wife, referring to a particularly roudy Budapest football/soccer team.
If you’ve come here looking for any update, I’m on vacation. In Crete, Greece, no less. (Photos and commentary forthcoming.)
Meanwhile, the best coverage, as per usual, is on Pestiside (whose editor, Erik D’Amato, I had the pleasure of dining with barely a week ago, formerly an Internet-only friendship). Wortwhile photos also on Index.hu.
