The Lock of Love

On Sunday it was our first wedding anniversary, so Daniel and I left Gaye and Derek at our place to dogsit Iago and spent Saturday night at a hotel in Miskolc. The reason we chose Miskolc to celebrate our first year together as a married couple is because it has a well-known bridge on Kandia Utca that features many hundreds, and possibly even thousands of "love padlocks".

Basically the idea is that couples engrave their names on a padlock, attach the padlock to a public fixture (such as a bridge, fence, gate or railing), then throw away the keys as a symbol of their enduring love and commitment to one another. Pretty romantic, huh?



And doesn't Daniel look spiffy in his new hat?
