hungry in hungary

Here we are in budapest. We arrived around lunch time today and we were very hungry (in hungary) after having breakfast at 8am in Vienna. (That's twice I've used that pun, I'm ever so sorry. I shalln't do it again)
Our visit to Vienna was the shortest we've had since our trip began and so it was more difficult to find the passion for the place in just over a day. We did however meet someone very special there. He was lonely and at first a little shy but the Lonely Ghost of Vienna soon became a close friend. He walked the hostel floors each evening... The hostel was rather different from our hostel in Prague. Much more family friendly which was good in a way but not so good in others.
The city was certainly very beautiful but it was hard to know what to pray in a city that felt like it was sleeping. The creativity was certainly there but it felt dry in some ways, without spirit. A city that on the surface has everything but not so much within. A city that needs a soul. (the lonely ghost of Vienna needs some friends)
Now in Budapest we have the excitement back again and after a long day of travel and waiting we're ready to get going again. We have found another cool hostel and have hooked up with a Brazilian called Sylvia which is cool. It seems to be another hostel in which we are likely to meet other travellers and hang out with them (which I think was what was lacking in the last place) It has a club/bar/restaurant (that only sells sandwiches) downstairs and so it promises to be an exciting few days. It also has a laundrette which is good cause I need to clean my clothes. I'll go and do that now. Thanks for reading.
