The guy on the left is Sito. He's from Madrid, Spain and we met back in 2008 in Washington, D.C. where he was studying English. He's a great guy and we've traveled together before a number of times, both in the US and outside. I hadn't seen him in a few years, so it was great to catch up. The one on the right is Ian and he and I have also traveled quite a lot together. We go back all the way to our freshman year of college. He has a nice beard.

| Ian's beautiful beard put mine to shame so I shaved. [R's note: Thankfully, Ian brought Tom some new shaving tools. Phew.] |

We had a great stay in Budapest. Afterwards, we rented a car and drove through Hungary to Slovenia... we'll cover that in the next Europe post.
