Take Two in Budapest, Hungary

We first visited Hungary in 2007 and when I recently reviewed our photos of that visit, I was not happy with the quality of our photos.  We used a Lumix Panasonic point and shoot camera back then and now we have upgraded to DSLR Canon with 18 - 200 mm zoom lens.  I wanted better pictures and so two days ago, we went back to where we were parked in 2007 - at the foot of the historical, beautiful and at-night mesmerizing Chain Bridge connecting Buda and Pest below which is the River Danube.  Mar took new photos and I am happily content with the results.

We visited the cities of Pecs, Szged and the capital Budapest.  All these cities are with a long history and those are evident in the architecture of the historical buildings and churches.  The cities are beautiful.  The country side are wisely and productively used to grow and raise plants and animals.

I might as well mention here that here in Europe all countries are actively and aggressively into farming which I did not see much in the Philippines.  People here are seemingly hard-working.  Last year in France, there was a news of drought which affected crops in France and which the government is giving aid in the billions of Euros.  This news is a huge source of amazement to me but what I do not know probably is how much all countries here are subsidizing food production and farming.  Food here is cheaper than in Canada - examples of which are the following:

In Romania:  pork legs chopped are 8.8 lei a kg or Euros 2 or Cad $2.6.  
In Canada: same item above is Cad$6.6

All over Europe, pork is cheaper at an average of 30%.  Eggs and milk by about 40%.
