Today marks the end of our unforgettable European adventure. After weeks of exploring historic cities, immersing ourselves in festive markets, and tasting delicious foods, it’s time to pack our bags, say farewell to Budapest, and make our way back to the U.S.
Morning: Final Farewell to Budapest
We’ll start the day with breakfast at the Mystery Hotel, enjoying one last meal in this unique and whimsical space. Afterward, we’ll finish packing, bring our luggage to the lobby, and check out. With everything ready, we’ll wait for our airport transfer and take a moment to reflect on all the memories we’ve made during this trip.
Departing from Budapest
Our driver will take us to the Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport, where we’ll board our Lufthansa flight to Frankfurt. As the plane takes off, we’ll get one last view of Budapest, with the Danube River winding through the city and its iconic landmarks standing tall.
Connecting in Frankfurt
After landing in Frankfurt, we’ll navigate the busy airport for our connecting flight on United Airlines. Traveling through one of Europe’s largest hubs can be an adventure in itself, but we’re ready to tackle it!
Flying Back to the U.S.
Our final flight took us to Dulles Airport outside of Washington, D.C. As we crossed the Atlantic, it was a perfect time to look through photos, revisit memories, and maybe even start planning future travels. It was also time to rest up. With the time change, our day was very long day.

Home Sweet Home
When we arrive back in the U.S., we’ll feel a mix of emotions—grateful for the experiences we’ve had and happy to be home. This trip has been a whirlwind of sights, sounds, and flavors, and it’s left us with stories we’ll treasure forever.
Reflections on the Journey
From the charming streets of Nuremberg to the twinkling Christmas lights of Budapest, this trip has been a true holiday adventure. We’ve experienced history, culture, and traditions in ways that have inspired us, and we’re taking home not just souvenirs but also a deeper appreciation for the places we’ve visited.
