Mr. Hat visits relatives in Hungary.
These are photos of our visit to Hungary
in 2004. These are pictures of my relatives. Most of my immediate relatives live
in Kaposvar (on my mom's side) or outside of Pecs (on my dad's side). We went in time for a
Hungarian wedding (my cousin's
daughter, Kincso and Balazs). My parents, my brother Csaba and his family, and
my nephew Justin also went. It was one big family reunion. Bring on the Palinka
(but not the Unicum).
Some basic Hungarian vocabulary.
Hello Hungarian - Jo napot
kivanok.
Goodbye Hungarian - Hello (what's up
with that) or Cia (pronounced See Ya)
I would like a beer.
Hungarian - Egy sor letseves.
Where is the bathroom (important for
women) Hungarian - Hol van a WC? (you
will have to learn how to pronounce WC correctly)
Enjoy the slide show, click on any picture
to enlarge it. (may take time to load, please me patient and have a glass of
wine. Egri Bika Ver (Bull's Blood) or Tokay would be acceptable choices.)
