sopron, hungary

it's a smaller medieval town on the austrian border with a quaint town center. it was lovely. we enjoyed a modern accommodation with a living room and bedroom - quite essential when traveling with two little ones. we arrived on saturday afteroon. most of the stores were closed, but we got to walk around a bit, play in the town center around the water fountain, and find a good place to eat. when i planned this trip, i didn't realize that we'd be spending sunday here. everything is closed on sunday, including the breakfast that was supposed to be included with our room. :( we ended up finding a good little bakery where we got to try several different hungarian breads and pastries.

we spent the day strolling around the town, watching the locals and just relaxing. the sunday feel is definitely one of a slower pace. we needed it.



here's something random from our visit to sopron: the next morning at breakfast i learned something about myself - i like my eggs sunny-side up! with toast of course. :) i hadn't tried eggs like that in years and years so you can imagine i wasn't too thrilled when they turned up on my plate. i decided to try it and low and behold i loved them! i've been making them for breakfast a lot since this trip. yum!
