If you have problems viewing the image, try right mouse click -> properties -> copy the URL address into your browser, view the link (it’s http://www.funpic.hu/files/pics/00018/00018912.jpg) than go back, and view this forum page again. The image should appear now.
We’ll try to get to the bottom of this problem.

Anyway, nice picture tj. Very Happy

By the way, I hope you all know that the first McDonald’s was opened in Budapest, but McDonald, being an aristocrat, fled to America after the Russians came to occupy Hungary. Wink

At first sight I thought the photo was made up cause of the McDo sign.
I had no idea it had an Hungarian origin.
I understand now, why Budapest can be called the 100 McDonald's town

I think I once was there after a long walk.

I made some photos around there. As soon as I have more time, I'll post some here. (This one not from me)

Wow! What a nice pic! And then again, it's so interesting...I didn't know about Mcdonald's ...I thought the one I remember from the 80's, near the Kigyo' utca was the first ever in Budapest....
