Hungarian Summer Gatherings

This week, when I first saw Ailsa’s (from Where’s My Backpack?) Photo Travel Theme of Meeting Places and Krista’s (from the Daily Post) Photo Theme of Summer Lovin’, I immediately thought of me and all my fellow Formula 1 crazy friends at the Hungaroring racetrack outside Budapest this weekend.

Then we went for a walk around the centre of Budapest yesterday evening and saw this amazing sight over the Hungarian Parliament, which is a marvellous sight in itself…
