Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Basilica

Another hop on and off brought us back to the Pest side of the Chain Bridge, only a short walk from the stately St Stephen's Basilica, where a 200 forint voluntary donation, enforced by the clergy on the gate, gained entry (also enforced was the removal of my baseball cap - only temporarily perched up top to free both hands to sort out the change); the interior was good value with impressively decorated columns and ceiling, and a chapel housing the Holy relic of the saint's right hand.
