Budapest and its tourists

It is a most peculiar thing that when the temperatures rise, tourists are suddenly seen everywhere. One may ask where do they come from so suddenly? Did the Americans read the forecast for tomorrow and decide to take a day-trip to Hungary? Did the Germans hear that you can do cheap shopping in Budapest?

But that's not the only interesting fact. Even more interesting is that terasses have now opened and are suddenly issuing new menue-cards with more options and certainly much higher prices than just a week ago.

For sure the city will be flooded with tourists by the end of my stay here. It will be quite a change, since until now the city was, though a busy one, somewhat spared from foreigners. But then again, I may as well get used to it, since I'll spend the first half of my summer vacation in Vienna...
