Budapest

On the way to Budapest we had a lovely ten hour layover in Zurich and got stranded in a very deserted airport. We locked up our luggage and milled around doing absolutely nothing. Do not believe any movie hype about being stuck in an airport over night; there is absolutely nothing to do. No shinanigans to get into, no cool security guard that will let you mess with awesome equipment. So after we figured out the suitcase locker machine (which took up 20 minutes of our time)  we then tried to find an outlet to charge our electronics. There was only one. which a girl decided to Bogart all night.

In Budapest there was a lot to see, but we never got to any of it. We decided to go to a "Party Hostel" thinking it would be a great way to meet people around our age to do fun activities in the city with and get to see some night life. There was no actual viewing of the city. The first night in we bonded with the staff and guests over fun games followed by a fun boat ride of the city. The second day we joined a bachelor party and wandered around Budapest taking in the sites between bars. The next few days were spent in the hostel making new friends and not doing much else.
