Toilette decoration and toy at a restaurant in Szeged, Hungary. We had a family lunch at the Bavaria Beer Pub and Restaurant after my niece's baptism in November 2016.
Vécédísz a Bajor Királyi Sörözőben Szegeden - bátyám fiának keresztelője után itt jöttünk össze egy családi ebédre 2016. novemberében.

A wild boars is peeing in the fenced off wildlife viewing area of the Gemenc Forest, Duna-Drava National Park at Porboly, Hungary. Animals here are used to the visitors and come to the fence in the hope of some food. We came here with our friends to walk in the woods on this sunny Fall afternoon.
Egy vaddisznó pisil a gemenci erdő pörbölyi vadmegfigyelőjében (ezen a kerítéssel körülvett területen egy szarvascsalád és egy egész vaddisznókonda él). Az állatok hozzászoktak a látogatókhoz és az etetés reményében egészen odajönnek a kerítéshez. Bajai barátainkkal jöttünk ki ide sétálni egyet az erdőben ezen a napos szombat délután.
Is the best medicine, it was said. Be wary, it could be a bad medicine, too.

The groom looks like Ken Watanabe to me.
Traditional Japanese weddings are Shinto-style held in shrines. Often, brides wear a traditional wedding kimono called shiromuku or white kimono robe. Grooms wear montsuki (black formal kimono), haori (kimono jacket), and hakama (kimono pants).
A number of times I have been invited to attend such weddings. I (politely) declined the same number of times.
Why?
When you're attending a Japanese wedding, you are expected to bring cash as a gift, the amount of which depends in your relationship with the couple. In some cases, the amount is indicated on the invitation card. 30,000-yen is not unusual.
I can spend that amount to a fine glass instead ;)
