Today is a national holiday. It's the birthday of the first Christian king of Hungary and when we celebrate the founding of this country. Tonight we had a special bar-b-que at Zach and Julie's and then went down to the river to watch the fireworks. We were going to go to a friend's apartment who had access to the rooftop, so we could get a good view. But the streets were all blocked off around the river, so we couldn't get close enough. We ended up going back to the square near our flat and watching the fireworks through the buildings. The weather had been cooling down and there was lightening in the distance. But about 10 minutes into the show, a storm showed up. A huge wind came out of nowhere and it started to rain a little. We got up to head back home (about 3 blocks away) and then it just started POURING! We started running, but not before we got absolutely soaked. It was a fun night, and we just laughed about it when we got home.
Here's some pictures of the night...
This is me and Ashley (one of my roommates and fellow STINTers) after we realized that the streets were blocked off and we couldn't get to the roof...
Here we are watching the fireworks from a distance...
And then here we are in the lobby of our apartment building (with Kirsten, our third roommate!), drenched from the storm...
