Fulbrighters in Pecs

Last weekend a group of Fulbrighters descended on sleepy Pecs, so I finally got the full tourist tour that I had been too lazy to undertake on my own.
Me in front of the Zsolnay fountain. The Zsolnays are a famous Pecs family known for their ceramics. They developed the secret bluish-green glaze you see on the fountain's lion heads, with the recipe known only to trustworthy family members.
Locks of love. Those in love scrawl (or engrave) their initials and a date on a lock and attach it to the gate. Their love, I think, is meant to last as long as the lock does. Much to my chagrin, (since I have a lock there myself from 2004), I learned that older locks are regularly removed to make space for newer ones. In my opinion this is a very skeptical statement about the constancy of love.
My first wine tasting, at the Bock cellar in Villany. We started with the white, but Villany is really known for it's reds. Ended up buying three absurdly expensive (for Hungary) bottles of wine when happily drunk afterwards.
