Tom’s one day tour

On Wed., Becca and I did a special edition of Tom’s one day tour… it wasn’t hot so we were comforable and there were only two of us so we moved pretty fast… here are some pix from that afternoon…
This pic is one of my fav scenes… we got kinda lost walking down from Buda castle and wound up walking ACROSS the tunnel entrance…
in fact if you look above the great seal and see the railing, that’s where we got stuck! my bad.

castle hill

so the girl in the downhill tram couldn’t break a 10k note and we walked ziging and zagging down the hill from the palace, to the seal, across the tunnel entrance to the street… then across the bridge to St. Isvan’s Basilica…

castle tunnel

so here is the tunnel that runs under the castle hill… it was a new experience for me to walk across the top of the tunnell where kids hang out…
from the top we took pix of the chain bridge… the great seal is just left as we view it here… from this spot we walked across the Chain Bridge to St. Isvan’s

from the top of the tunnel

…so, from the center of the top of the tunnel, looking through the barbed wire – which kids had proped up to climb through – you look right through the chain bridge…

St. Istvan’s hand

This is the case that hold’s St. Istvan’s hand… you pay 100 Forints to turn on the light to see his hand…

St. Istvan died 1000 years ago… this relic is interesting, but He who is worthy of worship has both hands, feet, and every other part of His body intact after His resurrection: Jesus…
