Swimming in the 'laps only' pool with Kate
Apparently, we needed to bathe. With a bunch of strangers. Repeatedly.
Today we drove into downtown Budapest, City Park to be exact, then changed into bathing suits to run around Europe's largest medicinal baths. Oh, did I mention it was 30°F outside?
We had been to the Széchenyi Thermal Baths last February with my parents and I absolutely loved it. Today was even better. Something about the hot-cold-hot-cold really relaxes me. I even hopped in one of the iced pools after the sauna. Wonderful.
One of the three big outdoor pools. Indoors there were many, many other pools and saunas.
Széchenyi Thermal Bath... well, one of them.
Me, on the left. Lappin' away...
The central pools - each has jets and thermally heated water up to 104°F in some spots.
Hot water, cold air!
After sunset, which means about 4:30pm. Still bathing!

Sunset at 4:30?!?! Ok, wow! I think that happens in the extreme eastern states in India, but I've never seen it myself..sounds/looks like fun!
