Pulyka Nap

Chocolate Turkeys
This last weekend was "Pulyka Nap"- Turkey Day in Debrecen. It seems that this area is well known for the turkeys that they raise and market, so Debrecen takes advantage of that for the benefit of the tourists. There was a big celebration at the piac (downtown) with traditional songs, lots of booths selling items, plenty of good food, and even a cooking contest. I was also surprised to see some "Native Americans" playing their indigenous songs. Having grown up in South Dakota I was curious where they were from and found out that they were actually from Lima, Peru. There's no telling what you will find here in Hungary!
