After lunch we headed back to the same bath house we had been to the night before. This time we got more pictures. This bath house is the largest spa in Europe. It taps into two thermal springs. One that comes out of the ground at degrees and the other at degrees. It really is amazing to think that public baths could be so architectural. My neighborhood pool looked nothing like this!

After our healing soak, we followed a path where we had seen a stream of people headed with Hungarian flags. The park we were walking in was really nice with a pretty restaurant sitting on the water.
By this point, we could hear music as if on a stage, so we kept heading in that direction
We ended up here, Hero's park. Now there was a man giving a speech. I asked someone what was going on. She said it was the Hungarian president. The election is April 6 and it was a campaign rally.
We could see more beautiful buildings in the distance, and we kept walking. Christine stopped to consult the book and map to see if we could figure out what they were. Notice the woman behind Christine with the cigarette. I have never been around more smokers in my life than here. I don't even think there was this much smoking in Vegas. Chris would keep a tally of how many cigarettes it felt like we had smoked as the days went on. We decided they must think the mineral baths erased any damage the smoke would cause.
We explored the castle a bit before we headed back to the hotel.
Before we left we had one of these snacks. They are like soft pretzels, but softer, no outside crust, and they are really yeasty. The salt on the outside wasn't giant salt grains, instead it was some sort of glaze. It was super tasty.
