Quite a week, especially the weekend.   We do love being busy and busy we have been!   Most of the week we packed and took stuff to the new apt, then back to pack some more.   When the weekend came we left town.   






On our way out of town we drove along the Duna.   It was so beautiful.   It certainly was  a different river from last week and the week before. 



We did a couple of apartment checks.   The sisters did a really good job with their house.   The elders had a pretty good apt.   They made me happy because they had defrosted their fridge.  How nice it is when they want to please.  I do think that some of the missionaries need some cooking lesson, especially with the ovens where you have to guess where 350 degrees is on the knob.   These young men couldn't find it.   Look very carefully, you will note that the pan is black, as is the cake...all the way through. 







We drove through some beautiful farm lands that is just getting ready to grow something. As we crossed through to Croatia we saw this old guard station.   Again this country has such interesting recent history.   Can you remember Yugoslavia?

We just spent a few hours in Croatia doing an audit.   Then on or Pecs in Hungary for some training and also we were invited to speak in church while there.  We do enjoy both of the Branches we attended, one in Pecs and one in Kaposvar.

The hotel we stayed in was totally decorated in traditional Hungarian.


Meg, this one is for you.  It is a very old doll with glued on hair, but dressed in the traditional costume and color of the area around Lake Balaton (the largest inland lake in Europe).





These are also part of the decoration.   Any Ute Fan would love these, don't you think?



We returned home to "the birds".   Our tree in the front of our apartment was full of birds, eating the berries left over from last year and dropping the stones and other "stuff" all over.   We had to have our car washed twice last week.  When ever a car or bus came by, they would all fly away, and it was really noisy.  They kept coming back.
Somehow this last part would work last week.   So it is now there.

We came home to the next chapter in our lives.
