We had about two hours left to make our way back to the boat before departure time. I decided to map to see where the cat cafe was in relation to where we were heading. It actually wasn’t really out of the way so despite it being closed we decided to walk in that general direction to see if we could see any cats through the window.

It was hard to see in with the reflection on the windows so we had to basically put our faces up to the glass. There were people working inside of there but that didn’t stop us.

So sad they are closed. Is this reason enough for us to come back to Budapest?

We continued walking toward the boat and wouldn’t you know we passed the rose gelato place again! Despite the fact I’d already had lunch dessert that didn’t stop me from popping in just to see how much one of these babies was going to set me back.

Hungary has their own currency here (more on that later) so I had to ask Carey to do the conversion. A small cone equated to about 4.00. Done!

This was made by hand using a spoon. It was so detailed and time consuming. I can’t believe this was only 4.00. (It was small but also delicious.)

Greg had been grabbing coffee beans at Starbucks while I got gelato. Somehow we missed each other and he ended up nearby in the Christmas market. (It really isn’t a Christmas market but rather a bunch of dessert and food and drink stands.)

We walked over to meet him and he said there was a booth there with the longest line ever and he couldn’t imagine why anyone would be waiting for something that long.

Across from the Ferrari dealer there was a monument of some sort with a chain and lots of pictures and posters attached to it that appeared to be some sort of protest.

Seems like some Hungarians believe the government is trying to sugar coat the past for the newer generations and have brought pictures and all sorts of remembrances of people here.

A few last random pics from the rest of our walk back.
