We were looking forward to the long weekend which consisted of October 23. Everyone suspicioned that the day of the 50th anniversary of the Hungarian Revolution would be scandalous. The official commemoration was pontifically organized – according to the circumstances. From afternoon to the following day’s dawn there were more fights in different points of Budapest between the police and the demonstrators who were fluently on the move to avoid the encirclement by the police. The policemen used tear gas grenades, tinted water-cannons and gum shots to dismiss the crowd. According to press releases there were no impinges but there were in fact. 
And now I tell about our engagement of this short holiday in general terms. On Friday we were eager to leave the office to give ourselves up to the long weekend. Still in the afternoon I started to tidy in order to move in this weekend. On Saturday morning we got up early because one of Krisz’ colleague came to us to set the antenna on the rooftop. I would’t have thought but they finished only in the evening. Now, we can see 6 man-made moon with several music channel - especially on Krisz’ great pleasure. In the evening we took my mother to a shopping centre because she was alone, my father was in the forest. On Sunday morning me & my sister decided to go to a flea market to sold some clothes. In the afternoon my father did BBQ. Anyway, the weather was fine with 22 degree the whole weekend. Then I wanted to immortalize the Elizabeth Bridge in its gala dress so we went to the town.
We parked the car and walked on that part of the Gellért Hill where I never been before. It’s full of statues of notorieties from the world history and the view is great.
When we came down we saw that some roads were closed, the vehicles had to choose other way. We saw that a lot of people were standing at the bridgehead seeing something down: the demonstrators were just going on parade with big national flags and banners and torchs, on old lorries called Csepel shouting ”Put the PM in prison!” or ”Join us!”. It was just like in a movie. On Monday I prepared a full breakfast then we drove to Tata (the neighbouring town of Tatabánya where I used to go to the college), to the Old Lake. I really liked even the approach, the edge of the road was full of beautiful colorful trees which got dressed in autumnal tones: the leaves were yellow, brown, quite red, rusty and few still green. We walked round the lake, it’s quite big with its 7 kms.

Afterword from the Budapest '56 Szabadság Nyilatkozat:
"A forradalom üzenete, hogy a szabadság legyőzhetetlen, az emberiség szabadságra született. A szabadság ajándék, de szabadon élni közös felelősség."
