Today was a rather quiet day. We decided to go back to Matyas Templom, To see the interior. As our tour book suggested it was rather dull. The interior contained a lot of scaffolding because a major restoration is taking place. There was an excellent exhibit showcasing x-rays of walls and items undergoing renovation and the result of these renovations. The craftsmanship required to do this type of work is amazing... not only woodworkers, but painters, silversmiths, iron workers and plaster specialists, fabric restorers and a person to oversee all these activities. I absolutely love stained glass windows and the church had many. The more vivid...the better.
This afternoon, after purchasing some more Hungarian food for our breakfast we went to a family gathering where we met up with my sister and her children as well as with cousins I had not seen in 20 years. It was wonderful to catch up and to meet children who had not yet existed 20 years ago! all continues to go very well... hope it is the same at home!
