20th October
This day we got up early because Birna had to make herself pretty (or at least she tried to) and Nóra had to eat breakfast, so you can see this day was nothing out of ordinary.
When we arrived to school we saw some tired faces, but soon these faces became angry!
They had their reasons because there was some misunderstanding about our small bus :)
After a while the 18 of us were leaving in a bus for 50 and of course we made ourselves as
comfortable as we could. We have to admit that this wasn't one of the hardest things 
that we've done during the recent days.
Then we arrived to Kis-Balaton. We all liked it and the Icelanders weren't familiar with some of the bird species. We also saw some water buffalos, horses and grey cattle, and took some nice pictures of them. When we weren't walking around in the nature, we could get information about the area in the Kis-Balaton house. We had a guide outside and inside the building and gained some knowledge on the history of the place.
Our next stop was Hévíz where representatives from the city council led us to the museum of Hévíz. There we saw some exhibitions on very various topics, more or less we enjoyed it. Then came the obligatory speeches which we enjoyed veeeeery much. Never mind, the 'pogácsa' was delicious, wasn't it Emil? :D
After we got our free tickets we went to the bath where we almost thought that we would turn into ice cubes (in our heated changing rooms). Fortunately we got into the water in time and swam for a while. This bath is said to be very healthy and because of that, it is popular. It is one of the biggest tourists attraction in Hungary. We liked the bath, but before we knew, we were wearing our clothes again and trying to shop. Some of us bought some nice things but the others were saving their
money for the next day or eating ice cream.
When we were heading towards the bus it started raining for the first time since the Icelanders arrived.
Soon we were home eating a nice meal after this long day.

Oh yes, this 'misunderstanding' was that the bus was surprisingly nicer and bigger than the one we had hired for the day. So those who were to stay at school could rightly feel that they were missing the opportunity to be with their partners and .... quit the day's lessons and tests... Everyone coped, eventually.
