District 15--The Mayor's Office

Today we visited with District 15 Mayor Hajdu Laszlo. In addition to the mayoral duties that you might expect, the city district is also responsible for running the area's school district. Mr. Lazlo seemed very well versed about the educational system and we learned about some similarities and also differences between our educational systems by administration design. The bags he holds in his hand contained some gifts that he gave to each of us. A CD pictoral of Budapest and a beautiful book of Budapest.


The second photo shows Mrs. Aadland; as the Mayor of the Moment. Mayor Lazlo offered his chair and I took advantage of being the Mayor of Budapest District 15, if only for a brief Moment..... fame is so fleeting!!!

The final photo is the view out of the window of the district council meeting room. Ah....Budapest!

We toured a age 3-6 Kindergarten Program and then had a lovely lunch with the Mayor, his secretary and the Director of the Kindergarten Program:
