Janos and Zsolt
Janos (pronounced Janosh) picked us up at Lisa's along with his good friend Szolt (pronounced with a soft G as in Zsa Zsa). Szolt speaks nearly perfect English and was our translator and delightful company. You can tell a person is comfortable in a language when they can joke in that tongue.
By the way, the Y and the Z are reversed on the Hungarian keyboard so if I don't notice, please substitute a y whenever you see a z. And here' the pronouncian guide:
S = sh
sz = s
zs = soft G as in Zsa Zsa
It was still rainy when we left Budapest and the rain followed us to Debrecen where Zsuzsa was waiting for us with a delicious dinner of roast duck that sent its fragrance throughout the condo. Despite the fact that we've eaten very well and very much here, we couldn't wait to dive in. It was as succulent as its fragrance promised. Janos helped with the dessert: thin crepes filled with ground hazlenuts, topped with a rich chocolate sauce and whipping cream. Mmmm Hans is already worried about the extra pounds he'll be carrying in his first few days on the Camino.
