Tuesday night (late) – What the Heck ?

Greetings from Portaz in Slovenia.. I’m right at the Croatian border.. In fact, I can see the lights of Croatia from my room in the hotel. It was a longggg fun day. My buddy Andrej had lined up a bunch of talks with IBMers, Students and journalist.s.. Tomorrow it’s all Clients.. which will be fun..

Hungary was a real treat..t eh people are great, the landscape is great.. the language is… er… impenetrable. I like to think that I’m pretty good at languages.. but I don’t even recognize a single word of spoken Hungarian.. .. The one word I recognized on a sign today was ‘heck’.. and who knows what that really means.. what the heck anyway.. everyone I spoke to today was more fluent in English than I am !..

Here are some signs from the university technology park where I spent the day.. here’s the Citadela by day.

After leaving Budapest , Andrej and I had a good long (7 hour ) drive down to Slovenia.. We stopped at lake

or.. at least that’s what it sounded like.. it was beautiful and idyllic.. like the rest of the Hungarian countryside.

Sam is there now…

Then we reached Slovenia.. also very beautiful.. but in a different way.. very much like Austria..

We stopped breifly to meet andrej’s very nice wife and daughter.. and see his house.

We greabbed a traditianal snack.. then made the 2 hours drive more to here…

now it’s 2 am and I need to sleep. More in the morning..
