Sziget (Island) Festival


Yup, Hungary again. This time with friends to check out the so called "Student Island" festival. Quite an amazing event, running for 7 days: with loads of variety so you'll never be bored.

Here is their website

Still at half-way. Another person can finished the other way up - wall climbing from the ground level.

One of the helpers at the top. Note the distinct lack of anything attaching him to the structure. At this height the tower was seriously wobbling with the wind. Actually this guy was the sane one. At one point the guy helping me swung between 2 poles around the OUTSIDE of me, to change position - swinging right out over the ~8 storey drop. Mad.

Sadly, my last day. Another quick game of Go after packing up the tent, before I leave.
