Balaton

Last weekend I’ve been at the Lake Balaton with my family. We just decided in the last moment to make a reservation for 4 days in Zanka. It is huge youth centre with many buildings and facilites for holiday. We have been after the peak of the season so it was quite silent. It was a bit too silent sometimes when in the evening we desperately tried to find a  restaurant or a bufet for dinner. Definitely true that after the 20th August the summer season is over at the Balaton.

Luckily without the tourist dumping I could take nice photos!

This was taken from the house of Szegedi Roza in Badacsony. With her husband, the famous poet Kisfaludy Karoly, they have spent all the summers at the Balaton.

We had so impressive view to the Lake from the garden of a small Tscharda.

“Paprika hàz” I’ve never seen such a house even if the red pepper is very common in Hungary. You can find a small bunch of it in every kitchen.

One of my favourite picture after our first bath after 12 years in the Balaton. I love the colours so much and my models are so lovely:)

Hortobágy

A very nice and attractive village for tourists. In the summer season is full of German and Polish tourists who come with their trailers and spending a couple of weeks with riding and cycling in the Great Plain. I like to be here, it has a special aura and only 30 km from my town.

Return

This evening I came back from the tour. It was particularly interesting even if I am not interested in animal husbandry. First day we visited a broiler chicken farm. It was very modern with the newest technologies. I did not know before that French are very good at broiler-industry. All of the feeds, machines and also the chicken types are from France. We also went to pig and cattle plants. But they were not so impressive for me than the first one. Maybe these chickens are not so taste (I am sure they are not), but it was good to see this high-level production.

In these 3 days we visited the most important points of the North-East Hungary. Including Tokaj, Szerencs, and Lilafüred. We were only 20 km from the Rumanian and only 10 km form the Unkranian border while we were examined a Charolais farm. It was very beautiful landscape near to the Carpathian Mountains. Unfortunately, I was afraid to take my camera, I was not sure in the safety of the accommodation. I made a map to present all of the places!

Before my departure

I am making my packages. Tomorrow I go for a 3 day practical trip with my school. I am not so happy for it. I am full of exams. The economics and accounting are waiting for me. But I had to delay everything to spend a half week with sightseeing and visiting some plants. I don’t believe that it will help me to find my job. This part of agriculture are not my business at all. On the other hand I prefer to avoid meeting with my classmates. I am not ready for embarrassing questions about Prague. Damned funny was when a girl asked me if I studied the courses in Czech. I hope I will not get the same tomorrow. I am not sure if I had enough patient for them.

Weekend-trip

The ‘Vekeri’-lake is near Debrecen. Nice place for townies making a barbecue and fishing. For me it was a great occasion to try my camera in the nature.
