Our visit this year to Szentendre our twin town

We had the good fortune with my Husband and I being Mayor and Mayoress of the town to be invited to our twin town called Szentendre. Szentendre is in Hungary and is a really beautiful and very scenic and picturesque town and has a real magic about it . It is grand in style and very majestic in style and class in every shape and form. This majestic town sits near the Danube which is surprisingly wide and just beautiful. The town has cobbled streets and tiny alleys that look like something out of a magic book. There is always something to do and it’s the city of art and has a colony of artists. 162 artists live in the town of Szentendre and when being there I could understand why . The town can look the same but different in respect of natural lighting.  There are many little places to eat and visit some great museums and galleries. Each artist is so different and there prospective of arts is so different. Some artists sit on the street and paint whilst some also do caricature drawings which is fabulous for tourists to buy. It is very relaxing to take gentle walks or in my case in my wheelchairover cobbles which was well worth the bumps for the pure beauty of the town. When you walk up the hill to the top you can see some incredible views which is incredible on the eye. The beauty of the rooftops at different levels of this beautiful baroque town and further over the Danube . Up the top of the lookout point there is a church which is stunning.

Build day 2 of the second week

Today has been focussed around putting handles on the doors and finishing over boarding the ceilings and building and area for a window. Everything is still in chaos as for us being a family. It's like being in a bedsit and I can sure know what that is like. I've been there done that and have the t shirt. The dust is still settling every day and its surprising how much we find and where. Overall my day has been pretty difficult with seizures and difficulty with speech but I have tried my hardest which is all the matters and I have been positive even though my day was somewhat tricky. Jay has been great always and the hero of the hour especially with me throughout the day.

This week relaxing and working through Netflix

I’ve been poorly for some time now and it’s been wonderful to have the usage of Netflix . I have had a bad few months since our return from Hungary. I’m not sure if it’s because I was depressed about coming home . I know I have been harbouring a cold which turned into an infection that I can’t shake of . My asthma has been a little out of control and curiosly up and down and my peak flow has been low but I have already had antibiotics and steroids. Anyway thanks to Netflix I have watched the complete series of  the following titles. 1 Top Of The lake Top of the Lake is set in the beautiful picturesque country of New Zealand . The series is about a detective Robin Griffin who becomes obsessed with the safety of of a young girl called Tui . Suspicions arise when Robin suspect the father of abuse . In an attempt to help  Tui she tries to reach out to her in the best way possible . Tui the young 12 year old goes missing and the case is stepped up in and attempt to find her . T...
