Pannonhalma

Pannonhalma – On the Bus to Gyor, we took bet on when we would get there. We took bets on when Langelo would return from Budapest. Butterflies accompany my pilgrimage walk to Pannonhalma hill. At the bottom of the hill, two men driving a wagon, full of ripe melons, drawn by two horses.
The lady at information told me to get on the Celldomath train at platform four. This train supposedly would take me to Balatonfured. I got on the train but was confused, afraid that I had board the wrong train which could take me anywhere but the Lake. So I got out. The train leaves. I went back to the information desk. The lady informed me that there would be no other train tonight. I panicked and took a taxi back to the Zenieskola. My taxi driver is large. He wrote down the distance beforehand. It was 200km. It would cost me 20,000 ft. He barely fit into the small seat. We did not talk much. When we pass Pannonhalma, he point to it and said its name. He had missing lower front teeth. He would slow down when I was taking pictures of the pastures. Szusanna told me that is half her monthly salary. She makes 40,000ft a month, which is $137.93 USD
