Beanie's Big Trip Day Five

its our going home day today.....

 We had our last kwussants.  I've really enjoyed my trip and it's sad to leave...

While Andrea was finishing the packing, I had a cuddle with Asta.

 I'm going to miss Asta.  And Uncle George and Auntie Ami.

 Auntie Ami telephoned the cab company for us, and then Uncle George and Asta came downstairs with us to wave us off....

 And then we were off...

 And it only took us 20 minutes to get to the airport!  It's very foggy today though...

 Well, here we go then.  Off home....

We checked our bag in and then went through the security checks.  I blew another raspberry at the X-ray machine man but they didn't stop Andrea for a pat down search.  Bugger!!

We did some duty free shopping and then waited at the gate for our plane.

When it was time to go, we had to get on a bus first to get to the airplane!!

 And then had to walk up a scary ladder to get on the plane.  I yelled lots of encouragement to Andrea and she did very well!!

 This time we got an aisle seat in row three, right at the front of the plane!!!  Because lots of people brought carry on bags, they ran out of space in the overhead lockers and some people had to have their bags put in the hold.  We were OK though....!

 WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE............!!!

 We had lunch on the plane too - another cheesey toastie, I like them!

 And a fizzy drink and a chocolate brownie!  Yum!

 And before we knew it, we'd landed back at Gatwick.  That's a really easy flight!

Then we had to see which carousel our bags came onto.  Ah, number two!

Well that was quick!  Half an hour from getting off the plane and we're off to get our train home!

 We got on the Littlehampton train first, and left a tag on the table.

 Then there was an announcement that the train was being divided at the next station and we were on the wrong half of the train, so we walked down a carriage and left another weathergram on another table!

 Here we go.....

 THEN when we got to the next station, we had to get off the train anyway because they didn't have enough staff to drive the second half of the train!!!  So we got on ANOTHER train and left ANOTHER weathergram on the seat in front!!!

But eventually - half an hour later than we would've done on the first train - we got back to Brighton and got the bus back home!

 And here we are walking home from the bus stop!
I love holidays!!

 When we unpacked, we got out our shopping - Harrods Hazelnut hot chocolate from the Gatwick duty free!

Some yummy Mozart alco-choccie drink that Andrea says is fab that we got in Budapest

 And some Mozart choccies in a fancy red tin!

 That's the lid!

And that's the new stamp in my passport!!!
We did get some other shopping but it's presents for other people so we're not going to show pictures!!!

Beanie's Big Trip Day Four

We got up and made tea as usual.......

 Then, when we turned on our android tablet thingie and checked Faceparp, we discovered today is my BIRTHDAY!!!!

 I've come to Budapest for my BIRTHDAY!!!!  How exciting!!

 And the sun came out today too!!!!
Oh I'm so happy!

 Uncle George and Asta went to get got kwussants for breakfast too, which was so nice of them!

And then Asta came rushing up to me wiv a birthday prezzie!!  She said she'd stayed up ALL NIGHT to make it specially!

It's a Yellow Scarf!!  I love it!


 Thanks Asta!!  I love my prezzie!!

 Oh - what's happening??

 Later on when we were all ready, we decided to go out.  First we got a tram to down here.....

 And then we had to wait near this bridge for a bus.

 There's a big cruise boat going down the river!!

 And then we got a bus up to the Castle district - the bus was so busy we were all smushed in like sardines in a can!

 We found a statue of an army man

 Oh wow!!  Look at the views up here!!!  That's the Parliament building down there - we went there the other day!

 That's a big eagle bird.

 We found another drain cover too - we've found loads of those!

 Hey!  Asta came wiv us today!!  Yippee!

 That's a weird statue.....

We saw this lovely shop sign too!  Isn't it brill!!!

And then came to this fountain.....

Her knickers had fallen down at the back and was showing off her bum, so I showed my bum too.  That's only fair.......

We were all getting hungry by now, so we went down here.....

And came to this restaurant here!!

I got a big glass of wine, because it's my birthday.  I decided I was going to be the same age as Asta this year, and she's nine.  So now I'm nine years old!!!

We had a yummy salad with sun dried tomatoes in it and a chopped up boiled egg.  It was yum!

And we had stuffed crepes that had been fried up, with mashed potato!  I couldn't finish it all but I tried my hardest!!!!  That was a fab lunch out!

We had another stroll around after lunch - it's lovely up here!!

That's Asta showing us where to go next!  Lets go THAT WAY!!!

Oooh..... there's an interesting door!!


Gosh it's pretty here!!

That used to be a monastery!


There's another shop sign! 

The roof on this church, Asta says, is a lot like the Cathedral roof in Vienna!

We're going down here now.....


That's Fisherman's Bastion!!

It's rather fancy, isn't it??!

There's Asta and Auntie Ami enjoying the view

I couldn't do that....... the sheer drop on the other side of the wall would make my toes curl up!!!

It's lovely here!

There's Uncle George taking pictures!

The views are terrific!

There's even a brass model of this area with the names of the buildings written in braille!!!

Isn't that great!!  (some other people took pictures of me sitting here.  I'm famous you know.....!)

Then I got taken to the place where they make the best-est cakes in the country!!!  I got a chocolate and orange birthday cake!  AND it was yumtastic!!!

I had a coffee too, and Auntie Ami said I could have some of her cream and chestnuts on top!  She said that was an extra present!!!

Later on we saw some Lions.

Asta said her paws were getting tired from all the walking, so we decided to go home.  What a brilliant day!!!

I really enjoyed my birthday in Budapest!!!

After we got home, I had to do a little packing ready for going home tomorrow.  We decided to take these pictures from the guest room window..... it overlooks the internal Courtyard of the building.....




Later on, Uncle George made me a Birthday Martini with two olives in it.  Andrea had to hold me so I didn't fall into the glass!!!

Because we'd had such a big lunch, we weren't terribly hungry, so we had scrambled eggs and toast for dinner.  I love scrambled eggs and toast!!!

I'm pooped.  What a brilliant day!
What a brilliant trip!!!
