One of the highlights of last year's
Grand Tour was the opportunity to visit Budapest's Memento Park: a collection of statues and other relics from the Communist era. While
I've already written about that day, I've yet to post the pics we took from our visit. Time to catch up to the future worker's paradise that never came!
