Several large cities in Hungary, such as Debrecen, Budapest, and Szeged, have held bike rallies or shut down certain streets to celebrate the European car free day . This is in effort to get people to stop using cars. Ha. We are addicted, cars are our drugs. The number of cars in Hungary has probably more than quadrupled since communism ended. Maybe we should go back to the old ways :p. Bikes on the Pest river bank>>
In addition to the cold weather Budapest has been experiencing lately, Cold play is coming to Papp Laszlo Arena tomorrow. All the cheap tickets are sold out, and the ones left range between 175 dollars and 300 dollars. Anyone want to go, I'll be their tour as long as they pay for my air and concert ticket. A little story about Papp Laszlo arena, named after our best boxer, it first burned down in the late 90s; now they built a building that looks like a UFO with little pokey things on the side that look like they are designed to stab people.

The UFO just confirms the suspicions I had about you all along. The pokey things make your country seem more inviting too... I hope there is a lot of bike riding in college...
Now that's what I call an intimidating building!
