March 15 - Hungarian National Holiday
Most Hungarians are wearing their colors today and enjoying the day off and as a bonus it is a sunny warm day! Today commemorates a victory over the Hapsburgs in 1848. For many years the day was a time for political marches and gatherings but these days it is time off with the family. Banks, shops, grocery stores (even Tesco) are closed. I am going to a friends for a special Hungarian meal. Enjoy whatever you do today!
