Children's Day

In Hungary, the last Sunday of May is Children's Day. It was also Election Day for the European Parliament. After lunch, we all loaded up in the van and headed to the city center. The voting took place in a high-school. The children and I were able to watch, but I couldn't take any pictures. After voting, we stopped for ice cream!

At the ice-cream shop
 Our trip to the ice-cream shop was followed by a trip to a place called kosár ház (it means basket house, but not the crazy kind). This business was holding an event similar to a farmers market. This event was special because it featured all kinds of activities for children's day.

I forget the Hungarian name, but these yummy desserts translate to "chimney pastry". They originated in Transylvania. We had the cinnamon variety.

There were many animals. This guy is for sale if anyone wants him!
