Finally got out for a run after a week of traveling and nightmarish commutes to work. Ran my usual 2 loops around Regents Park. Good weather, low 40s, no wind. I felt good and moved at a decent pace for an easy run.
Budapest was just like Jeff mentioned in his comment - some beautiful buildings and squares, but they were overshadowed by tons of ugly Soviet style apartment blocks. And everything was covered in graffiti, which didn't help the impression. The subway still uses Soviet trains (but that was the case in Prague too). Lot of reminders of Moscow residential villages - same buildings, same yard planning in front of them. I liked Prague a lot more.
