Last weekend Yuka and I decided to go to our favourite cake shop, which is just a few blocks away from where we live, in the 12th district of the Buda side, up on the mountain. Its called Auguszt and it is a very old cafe and cake shop that dates back a good 100 years. We had Hot Cocoa and a small piece of walnut cake. Look at the pictures for a teaser, and if you are ever in Budapest, I suggest you try it. The cafe is family run and they make only their own recipies of over a 100 years old, and of course some more modern ones.

Cheers

This last time when Yuka and I went shopping for Momo-chan, we found something on the shelf that we didn’t want to believe ever existed. It is Dog Beer, and if you think I am joking, look at the pictures below. Now if you know me, you know I am crazy for beer, be it any kinds of beers, including Dog Beer of course.

This last time, the amount of empty cartridges were quite overwhelming, and since I am too lazy to make two trips down to the truck, I piled it up for a one-go. Look at the picture, I must have looked like an idiot taking this down. If I was the building’s maintainer, I would have fired me immediately from the premises

Hi

So I had purchased the AirMail from Manillamac, but since that has not arrived yet, I needed another case for the shipping. The MacBook Air is being brought to Budapest by my Mother in Law from Tokyo, and since I want it protected, I need to send her a sleeve case she can place the precious MBA in.

I went on googling, and found a very nice and in-style sleeve called Blue Suit from Fabrixcases, a company based in Singapore. Since I want it sent to Japan, it actually makes sense to order from the Far East, and of course quality-wise the Far East is unbeatable. I wanted to order in Japan, but the lack of credit card acceptance put me off.

This is how it looks, more on this later once I have it in my hand.

Hi

So the bag I ordered from Australia has finally arrived. It is just like what I expected, its handmade, perfect, and gives good protection to the iPhone. For more pictures, read on.
