Lake Balaton

It was time to look around beyond Budapest so the obvious choice was lake Balaton. It is Hungary's largest lake which stretches across 72 Km of the country and it is about 25 km at its widest point. We decided to go down to the far side by train. It was a gorgeous train journey as it was alongside the lake. We stayed at this great resort with a swimming pool and Jack loved being in the water. On the second day I think he spent about 6 hours in total in the pool, when he came out for some dinner he was so tired that he fell asleep in my lap before his food even arrived. We went down to the lake using a small footpath from the resort and spent a day swimming and just chilling by the water, which was lovely and hot. And even though it was a lake the bottom of the water was covered in nice sand and it wasn't to deep. We also find the people there so friendly and I got even get by with my little German. We had a lovely weekend and I would definitely go back
