November is almost gone! Seattle is back to normal, that is, cloudy and not so cold. The snow is gone, and some sun shines here and there. Today I got to see beautiful tiny white-black-brown cute birds in my backyard from the window of my room. Simple pleasures in life.

Here are photos from Budapest and Bratislava in April 2008. I loved Budapest and its thermal baths and great food, and beautiful people. Next time I go there, I won't go alone, since I think it's even a better place when you go with friends. Bratislava was exotic. It had all this communism remnants I just loved, in the trains, clothing, and city landscape.
