Budapest Hungary

I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on TV. That being stated I'll say this, you can take me out of Montana but you can't take Montana out of me. I'm following Hungarian tradition of holding this horse's bullock in order to have good luck on my next exams for school. Given that I'm not in school currently, I'll take good luck and vitality. This statue is located on the Buda side of the city in the castle area.

Riding the train from Bratislava, SK to Budapest, HU. This was outside of Bratislava before the train started to follow the Danube River to Budapest.
