Laurel and Anna were tired on the way home, but marissa is awake.
To switch gears i went on a choir trip to Vargesztes which is this old castle turned inn.
Here is a picture of Anna my Hungarian friend

Today Oktober 23rd is Hungarian national independence day becuase it is the day the 1956 revolution started and the day that Hungary became a independent free nation (aka got rid of communism). Jamie and I went to some of the public celebrations:
