Budapest mark 2

It's August, and for the Gawker crew, that means back to Budapest. This time, there were more than a dozen Gawkerites over there. And the city just gets cooler each day.

However, the cab drivers don't seem to know where Partizan is. This bar is on a pretty deserted bit of land on a promontory a few miles out of the center of Budapest, on a dark country road. Left by the cabbie in the middle of the road in the dead of night, saying "yes, yes, here", I had to call Nick for directions. "If you can see the goats, you're in the right place", he said. Indeed, there were goats all around us.

The Sziget music festival was, as ever, fabulous. Pity I didn't take any pix there. The few I took are here.
