Day 10, Siofok

Today we decided to go to the wonderfull tourist city of Siofok. This place has an awsome view of the largest lake in Central Europe, Lake Balaton. Lake Balaton is a wonderfull lake with crystal blue waters and nice sandy beaches. We checked into the Best Western Janus Atrium Hotel and headed straight to the beach. Today, instead of going around the town, we just decided to play around at the beach. We attempted to play beach volleyball with some locals but we got our tails kicked. After getting a thrashing we hit one of the local ice cream parlors and bought some triple scoop ice cream cones. That had to be our best day in Hungary. We decided to walk out as far as we could on the lake and dang that was far. You could walk out almost half way across the lake before having to swim. Later before we went to the hotel we found that we could rent sailboats for racing on the lake. We decided to try that out the next day because in the forcast it was supposed to be just a little windy on the lake. Perfect for sailing we hope.
