Into the crypt

Managed to go deep into the crypt of Egyetem Templom, built in 1720 over a much older church dating back to medieval times.  Formally a Dominican Church later to be claimed by the Pauline Order of Hungary after the Turks were driven from the land by combined German and Hungarian troops.  I felt at ease there amongst the bones as I felt half dead myself.


Yet to seek out the several lids of coffins that are infused with light..similar to the Turin Shroud.  In order to see them you must know where to go and whom to ask.  Something tourists are not invited to.

Finally commissioned a lawyer to handle the Hungarian red tape.

Days have been beautiful and sunny.  Our new apartment is inviting and comfortable.
