Mini blogger meet in Siofok

Yesterday I went up to lake Siofok, a town at lake Balaton.
I finally met with Jo, a fellow blogger I met via the Expat blog forum and various other Sites.
I’ve never been to Siofok before, so after a cafe and some chatting, Jo showed me around.
I took some quick snaps and soon we headed back for some more talk and a delicious Pizza. I should have taken a pic of it, because it’s a tough quest to find a good Pizza in Hungary

Soon after Lunch I went back home.
It was a) blazing and b) the ride takes two hours. I’ll check the train schedules. If there’s an easy / fast train up there I rather go by train next time

Gestern war ich in Siofok, ein Staedtchen am Plattensee und habe mich mit Jo, einer Blogbekannten getroffen, die ich via Expat blog forum und anderer Seiten kennengelernt habe.
Ich war noch nie in Siofok, also hat mich Jo, nach einem Kaffee und etwas Gelaber, erst einmal rund gefuehrt. Ich habe ein paar Fotos geknipst und bald sind wir wieder retour ins Cafe und haben weiter gequatscht und eine richtig gute Pizza gegessen. Ich haette ein Foto machen sollen, da es wirklich nicht einfach ist, in Ungarn eine gute Pizza zu bekommen
Kurz nach dem Lunch bin ich wieder heim, da die Fahrt a) 2 Stunden dauert und es b) bruetend heiss war. Ich muss die Zugverbindungen checken, mit etwas Glueck faehrt einer von den schnellen Zuegen hoch, denn dann fahr ich doch lieber mit dem Zug

Nice pictures. Not too sure about the one with the grinning mad woman in it though (me).

What a great time! And of course you snagged so wonderful photos along the way

I'm guessing a train ride would be lovely.

Yepp, Dan, they have those water towers all over Hungary. But usually only metal ones. This is the first old one I've seen

It's just the angle of the camera, Jo

Look at my huge full moon face. You look sweet and tiny compared to me

Next time I'll do a nice Portrait of only you, but I needed my 365days shot and what better than takin' this op.

Thanks, Sandy, even though the pics didn't turn out the way I intended / wanted to. There are those days

Thanks, sakaigirl
