This morning we went to the Office of Controlling Foreigners. It was funny. Maria had some difficulties as there were many and she was sent from one place to the other. At last I managed to persuade a man to hep us telling him that they spent only a couple of days here and didn’t want to spend so much in offices. He kindly sent us to another room, where again a great number of foreigners were waiting, a rude Austrian amongst them. We managed to get in front somehow though, and the officer was most obliging, so was the next and last too. Most part of the morning was spent like this however. I had lunch with them. The Swedish and Roumanian had to report too and apparently some of the others also as we met another couple. The Swedish was in some trouble as she came entirely without visa + was in for penalty. After lunch I took Maria home with me. We invited the Roumanian (Angela …) and the Swedish girl (Astrid …) to accompany us. Ervin was rather late, so we only managed a look round. We made a few snaps on the Gellért Hegy, but it was getting dark. After supper we fetched the girls again and went over to the Hármashatárhegy. The view was glorious, all the lights in the town twinkling, the Danube bridges lined by the lights. It was lovely, but cool. We had to go indoors. There was gipsy music but not an over excellent one. We had some fun with the girls though and we wrote some cards. Some together with Maria to common friends of ours. When it was getting dull we left the place and as Astrid wanted to see the Gipsy Childrens Band we went to the Ostende to hear them. They were quite good, much better than I would have thought them. I believe they all enjoyed it. Ervin got on very well with the girls, especially with the Roumanian who was the flirting sort. I liked them both. It was fairly late when we said good by to eachother. They all hated their “Führer P???” fervently and loudly as all of them meant to stay at least a day longer. As it was they are off for Munich tomorrow morning. I hoped they enjoyed their stay, but it was too short. I talked with Leon on the ‘phone and he promised to ring me up next day.
