BUDIMPESTA-
SZEKESFEHERVAR
JUNE 25, 1908
I left Budapest at 6 in the morning of June
25, 1908. I left my mother with tears in my eyes
and distraught, my only consolation the reali-
zation that this was inevitable. I took a tram
in front of the Western Terminal and travelled
all the way to Budafok with a transfer via Al-
bertfalva. From there on I went by foot. I fou-
nd immediate consolation, for I walked among
cherry and mulberry trees. Naturally, I climbed
a mulberry tree and scrumped for the first
time; the cherries were still too small.
