Hungary

Chapter 36 - Hungary


 Dear Diary...

I dont know from where to start... but I will !!!

This can be a long chapter, so its better if I make some points to get things organized.
This chapter is all about the time I have been on Stand with Mum and Dad in Hungary.
Things can get a bit confusing but let me explain...
First we were in Hungary to go to OZORA Festival, then we drove to Romania and after that we drove back to Hungary to relax for a few days before we got back on the road.
During this time when we stayed in Hungary ( with Mums family) many things happened, for this reason I will make some points first...
* Cleaning
* Fiesta
* Picnic by the river
* Mums (pre) birthday.

Ok, After we left our friends in Budapest (Read last chapter) we stopped in Hungary for 12 days.

When Mum and Dad arrived from the Festival they were very tiered from all the drive and dance, so they decide to stopped in Hungary for some days to relax and waiting to listen from a friend about some work in France (lets leave France for a different chapter ;)

* So, first they gave me a very good clean inside and outside. I was fresh as a daisy :)


 * Some days after we had a fest in the town where we were (grummmmtpsss) .
Very funny place but very small too with a fest goin into the night till 2 am :/ anyyywayyyyyy....
Mum and Dad managed to get very drunk and Dance for the folcloric sounds of popular Hungarian artists.
That was a register ;)
Funny street fest. For a couple of days was lots of Artesian showing they're hand work in the street. Interesting and very regional .



* After the fiesta, Mum and Dad decided to take mum`s k-niece Szabina Rácz and her friend Jani Rikker to the river so they could have the experience to sleep inside a Camper Van, as they have never slept in a Camper Van before;)
Very funny !!
Dad parked me 2 fingers away from river Danube.
No one was passing around, so we camp and made the space very cosy and friendly to be there for a couple of days.
Do I need to say, that was brilliant ??
Yes, Swimming, Barbecuing, Drinking, relaxing and... Sleeping :) (at 500 m of a camping park...oopppssss ;)

 After the camping we had a (pre) Birthday Party for Mum. Her family knew  that Mum will be away by that time when she will became 43 Years Old ... Did I say 43 ?? Sorry Mum ... Its 57 Years Old... eh ne !? :)
Oii...opps..mum shouting...says she is only 27...lol




After some more relaxing days at home (in Hungary), Mum and Dad have received the (sooo wait) message from Mercedes with the directions to France
.
YES... Mum and Dad will be Driving from Hungary to France to go pick apples but before that, I need to tell you some more adventures.
Do you want to know what adventures I am talk about ?
INSERT COIN

Yes... what you think !?
When I get to the scrap yard, you will be crying for more adventures.
So Please... save me from the scrap yard and
INSERT COIN

Ok, I tell you...

Romania 2 Budapest

Chapter 35 - Romania 2 Budapest






Dear Diary...

after all the Festival madness was time to return.

On our way out we have some very nice friends to come with us... Alice and Clive.

Was very funny to Travel with this friends until \Budapest where they stay until get a fly back to UK.

We manage to stopped by the first restaurant to eat a proper meal... muha muha muha  (this still was 1.000 high.)

Later, we stopped in a small but friendly Camping park in Aurel Vlaicu. It was in a small village !

From the street no one would of think that is a camping park but once we drove through the small gate there were some funny people singing and dancing.

Here we met some Scottish People
(is not Scottish, was Irish Freeka !!)
Imagine!!!!! In middle of Romania  meeting Scottish people..:)  small funny camping park but friendly:)
(is not Scottish, was Irish ..... Dawm !!)


A Part from the NOISY Scottish people (IS NOT SCOTTISH, WAS IRISH..... Bloody hell !!)
Dad, Mum ,Clive and Alice, manage to do a jam music session inside of ME !
I am not that big to host a stage or a Festival inside but they decide to make some music with a Kaossilator
 while Alice was drawing some riffs in her Guitar  ;)

Didn't take too long until they decided it was time to go to bed but it was a funny night !

Next day after a shower and fresh food we got back on the road to Budapest.
We made some stops in a way for a coffee or two ;)

The next night we were rumbling a bit looking for a place where to park and stay just for one night without having to pay for camping again, so we stopped outside of Csongrad
.
This was an allotment in a plot where i had AGAIN...(Mary and Jose) 4 people sleeping inside...

As this will be our arriving day to Budapest , we stopped and had a proper breakfast meal before make the last leg to Budapest.

Finally Budapest  !!!

we had stayed for a couple of hours looking at the place and find a hotel for our friends.

It was time so then we made our way to visit some family in Hungary..

Finally... I had some beauty treatment :):):)
Mum and Dad gave me a good clean up and washed my outside and hovered inside..
hihi, am tickles..@_@ ,anyway..^_^
Thank you :)

Now, but really... now:
INSERT COINS PLEASE :::: so then i can tell you my next story :)
until then...

Freeka, the real driver will come back soon!!!

Ozora Festival

Chapter 32 - OZORA Festival - Hungary



Dear Diary...


After the past incidents my head is spinning of so much adventures :)
 I managed to arrive to OZORA Festival in Hungary. ;o)

Amazing ! This is the sort of place where I dont feel lonely as there are many old campers and trucks around.

Took us couple of hours to get into the festival but after we finally got in, mum and Dad managed to find a place for us to park (camping) and Nuno Nunes has been with us all the way :o)
This parking space was not the best place in the festival as it was very close to the road (dust roads) and was nearly 30minuts walk from the main dance floor.
(I did change color with so much dust!!)

The festival was very big... I mean .. was enormous and all the trucks and cars wanted to be very near to the dance floor which made people drive to the end and then have no way to return as the roads was crowded with trucks, campers, cars and other types of living lorries and buses !

On the second day it started raining and that made everything and everyone very  muddy. Yep, Mudd was a must in this festival... but not only !! After that one muddy day, the weather was hot, very hot. I was so hot inside that no one could stay inside in ME for too long. Mum and dad was melting away after just few minutes inside. Imagine, when they put the kettle on to make coffee, i was a living sauna.But hey, no complains about the weather, its summer time :):)


MUM AND DAD WORDS ABOUT OZORA FESTIVAL

DAD WORDS
Bad Words
* too big Festival! from the camping to the dance floor was 30 minutes walk. 
* The market place reminded to Camden Town in a rush hour... O.M.F.God !! kebabs, fish shop, 10 pizza places, cloths, food (restaurants)  ... all this in duplicate.
* The place was not amazing ! The festival was in a forest but that doesn't mean wonderful-land.
* No much places to get water and always a big cue in any tap available.
* 20 Toilets in one place. The next lot of toilets was far distance from each other.
* You can walk for all week and you will not see everything in this festival !!

Good words -> 
* Brilliant
* Good fun
* Good music
* Underground Market was amazing ! 
During the day most part of the (street shops) has closed and give a chance for Travelers and Party People to make a small flea market to get some extra money in the pocket PLUS...Some of the most amazing handmade cloths and jewelery I ever seen..
* Nice to see old friends
* Nice to make new friend (even so people was too busy all time with other things and not enough time left to make new friends)

Congratulations OZORA Festival Organization, you are making something different and it works !
* DO NOT CHANGE YOUR ATTITUDE
* GET SMALLER 
* WE DO NOT NEED 10 PIZZA STORES
THANK YOU !!


MUM WORDS:
Bad Words
A bit too big. Wasnt easy to find friends. Not enough water taps around  A near by lake or river was missing to dip in during the hot days. Lack of lighting effects and deco in the chill out. Many people was driving up and down unnecessary during the day, creating lots of dust.

Good Words
 Very well organized start to finish. was nice to see local Hungarian food stalls such as langos stall. :)   Beautifully build chill out, made out of wood, which stays on the land permanently. Amazing view from the hill to the main dance floor.Great, free market place for travelers.

 Ozora Festival was in fact the biggest festival Mum and Dad have ever been.
After we left the festival and stopped at a local food store, mum heard from the shop assistant that it was 26000 people there this year. Gosh this is a lot. No wonder why they had trouble finding their friends around.


On my way to Transylvania Call Festival in Romania  ;)
