Ha, fooled you! No, I am not in Budapest. I could have waxed ecstatic over the marvelous goulash I had for dinner, and my long walk (or waltz?) afterwards along the Danube. But I suspect fantasy would have exhausted me, and probably you, fairly quickly, so back to my real life.
I have always loved getting mail, of the snail variety. Something with a stamp on it and a postmark. Since I don't seem to be very active with my own camera at present, I'm going to post instead some images of interest that I have received via postal mail. Maybe a quirky fact or two to go along with them.
Hence, today's Greetings From Budapest:
