Visiting Pécs { That's Page}

So, I've done a little more traveling in the week, and if you know anything about me, you know that I love traveling. Even if it is just for a day and to a city only a few hours away. On Monday, I took a bus {all by myself!} to the city of Pécs {pronounced page, not pecs}, a good group of my dearest friends are there for a month on a missions trip, so I guess you could say I visited missionaries, which I absolutely adore doing!

I was picked up from the bus depo and my adventure in Pécs began! They first took me to get ice cream from this wonderful little ice cream parlor, I got one scoop of cherry mania{ although I should have gotten more...way more} and then we walked to this small park where the team had been street evangelizing several times a week. They shared their testimonies about the things that God had done through and for them since their arrival. I then shared the things that have been going on in my life,heart and mind. After a few moments of silence, Callie started us off in a word of prayer. You know those sweet times of conversations with the Lord that you have when you are in a group of close knit believers? You have absolute faith that God is their and you are in this complete harmony. Yeah, it was one of those times.
After our hour or so in the park, they showed me the Basilica, the tower, Romeo( who was rather an very ugly looking statue), the square. And of course we ate gyros.We walked a little longer and they showed me the wall of locks. Yes, old fashioned locks. This wall has hundreds of locks with initials of friends and lovers, they then snap the lock on to the chain link fence and toss away the key to "seal" their love. It was rather romantic and my romantic inclined heart was in a little bit of a swoon.

We stopped for a while at the boy's apartment and jammed on the guitar a little and then took the bus to the girl's apartment and made banana pancakes. Abbe shared some of her music, which of course, I cried to. Selah snuggled with me and made me laugh. The whole group saw me off at the train and I began my journey back home to Vajta. Once again, I encourage you to travel around Hungary and enjoy the simple yet beautiful country sides and cities. I think you will enjoy the treat!

Mmm, God is good.
