and more Budapest

Dick looking cool at the Palace grounds - behind him is the Buda side of Budapest
Monica created the table linen that I brought back for Mom
Dick ducks under a tunnel in the Buda Castle Labyrinth.  These caves were naturally created by the springs, but then have been modified over the years.  They've got quite a history - now connected to many of the homes and other buildings.  Some of the past uses for this place include hospital, cellars, shelters - now it's a tourist attraction.
Some of the rooms in the labyrinth were used as wine cellars.  Here's a fun example of how this might have looked.
