The Hungarian No Doubt?

I have been listening to Hungarian online radio, which is a nice mix of American music, Hungarian music, and lower-quality covers of American music. In short, the same as they play on the radio over there.

So I hear this, “and fellas, you have got what appears to be a dynamite sound,” but I didn’t think Gwen Stefani knew Hungarian.

What the crap?

I don’t know what she is saying. I can tell you with some certainty that she is not asking how to get to a bank, or where the suitcases are. But she is trying hard to sound like Gwen Stefani, looking more like Cyndi Lauper.

And If You Don’t Know, Now You Know

Ha! I forgot to post the link to my photos.

We Were Warned About This

One of the ladies at the hostel told us about this. We tried it and probably did it wrong. From the Lonely Planet Hungarian phrasebook:

Take care when saying the most accepted Hungarian toast, égeszségedre. It literally means “to your health,” but if you mispronounce it the way English speakers often do you could wind up saying “to your arse.”

Back from Hungary!

Was Hungary awesome? Yes. Photos and recap forthcoming.

Am I happy to be back? Not so much.

But I guess I have stuff to take care of here.

Sigh.
