Out and About in Budapest

I was doing homework all weekend and only left the apartment for breakfast and dinner - had leftovers for lunch.
 Today I roamed and got lost. Yes, really and truly lost! Luckily, kind Hungarians guided me back to Andrassy Ut. My bearing street and what a street! The buildings are beautiful; the problem is slowing down and looking at the detail. I love the doors, too. I will do a post on door later. Here is a new find
 today.

Dragon Proof in Finland

reima claims to be dragon...water proof and after finding out what reima stands for - glad it is dragon proof. Reima is a line of children's clothing.
Arrived in the airport near Helsinki, Finland and found this ad:

...and this adult was pleased to find 2 Starbucks in the same airport - one on each floor. After a coffee I felt dragon proof.

Spent a few hours in Helsinki searching for a lunch place and enjoying the downtown area. Cold - yes it was winter, wind blowing NW cold. I was wearing a wool casual jacket and was comfortable. Locals had on winter type coats and kiddos also had hats and gloves. It was refreshing and am pretty sure the local have other winter coats for the real winter ahead.


Then back to the airport via the bus and on to Budapest.
