Last Morning of "terror" In Budapest

Not so bad but I went to the Terror Museum, not as previously reported the Museum of Torture
After having done many trips to the Eastern Bloc I have seen these in Warsaw, Prague, Lithuania etc
Where the locals share the bad times of German, then Russian occupation - with the addition of Polish occupation by the Lithuanians

Again photos not allowed, and boy did they have a lot of rules at this place. I did "translate" for a nice French couple who could not understand the rules about elevator usage.



One final point, the most dangerous place in Budapest may be walking past the American Embassy late at night like I did, the place is like an armed camp and if you walk near it two guys come rushing over and ask what you want ! I did not blow my cover and say I was Irish and just drunk and lost , I just kept walking away.
