There is always something of the Jane Austen about them we think and the pace of life always seems to be rather more gentle.<br /><br />The Abbey at Tihany is open to the public and is well worth a visit.

How I love faded spa towns and have visited a fair few, not only in the UK but on the Continent too. I find them truly inspiring to my daydreams (as do train journeys and that carriage looks particularly inviting).<br /><br />Regarding Mother and Daughter, from your description I can picture them as clear as day in my imagination. People watching is something I do with relish, and they would have fascinated me. Should I have been present I would have sketched them surreptitiously! <br /><br />Very "Death in Venice" je pense :)<br /><br />Is one able to visit the Abbey?Dollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12477812986531102750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102162146315706774.post-16373626131393646192011-10-24T08:30:41.324+01:002011-10-24T08:30:41.324+01:00Perpetua:

They seem to us to have an air of quiet gentility about them which we find alluring.<br /><br />Baden Baden sounds wonderful and we are sure that we should love it too. Budapest sits on a labyrinth of thermal waterways and the many ornate and less sophisticated baths across the City attract many tourists each year.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102162146315706774.post-31335291723425220852011-10-19T03:12:34.724+01:002011-10-19T03:12:34.724+01:00What a delightful excursion to Lake Balaton.

I suppose the gambling is the antidote to matters concerned with health and illness. Most North Americans are unaware that visits to such spas are often paid for by the health care system in European countries. For many years I visited Baden Baden and loved it. The waters and therapies definitely make one feel better, and the beauty of the setting feeds the soul. Going through the exquisite heritage bath buildings, with their soaring halls of marble and ceramic murals, is an incredibly luxurious feeling.Square With Flairhttp://squarewithflair.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102162146315706774.post-10907112935524276972011-10-04T18:24:46.056+01:002011-10-04T18:24:46.056+01:00Genius Loci:

I envy you to commute between Budapest and Brighton and I had to laugh when I read that if someone asks you what you do your reply is "do we look as if anyone would employ us?".
