Goodbye, Búdapest

I was sick on Whit Monday (6/9). I stayed on board, so all these photos come from Gail. In the morning, we were parked near Liberty Bridge. It was built as part of the Millennium World Exhibition at the end of the 19th century.

Budapest Paulyn Monastery is built in the cave of Gellert hill.

Liberty statue on Gellert Hill commemorates those who sacrificed their lives for the independence, freedom, and prosperity of Hungary.

Part of Buda castle.

Being Whit Monday, the Penticost Festival still rocks on with the mobile piano.
