... cu zugraveala scorojita in acelasi ocru trist. Oamenii sunt la fel de tristi, in fata cimitirelor, atunci cand intrii in orice oras din Romania.

Si aceleasi cimitire te intampina si cand intrii in Arad sau Deva sau Lugoj dinspre Timisoara. Aceasi oameni tristi la intrarea in oras.

In vechime, necropolele au fost cladite la marginea cetatii pentru a ferii oamenii de molime si a pastra targul curat ...

... as security dogs at rock concerts and now hear nothing. I haven´t been bıtten but am actıvely searchıng a rabies injection, ıncase the terrible rumours of rabid turkish dogs the size of elephants are true.

Over the next few days I really pushed hard with my cycling:  on the day I finally and somewhat sadly left the Carpathian mountains I peddled 170 km/106 miles.  On that day I met Sebastian, who had ...

... wilt u even kijken? Met een onderdrukte grijns en blik van verbazing wil de douane-mevrouw weten wat er in de keukenkastjes zit, onder het bed en achterin. Hm looks ok, zegt ze dan. 5 minuten later komt douane-mevrouw 2 hetzelfde inspectierondje doen met dezelfde onderdrukte grijns op haar gezicht J joehoo we mogen door na betaling van 2 euro voor een transitstempeltje. In Moldavie eten we bij een schattig restaurantje, buiten op het terras een steak en een fish en chips heerlijk ...

... police. As we get of the ferry, the ferry-guy tries to rip us off by charging 4x the price, One of the women helps us out and tells me the correct price. At the police, the guy tries to send us away, just a scratch, does not want to make the papers. In the end papers are made (insurance work) and the women turn super friendly and even try to get the ferry-guy fined!

On our way again. There are lots of designated free camping areas around. This evening our spot is at a lake ...

... Petru also writes and sings his own songs and never lost his charms, what a admirable person! Next morning they invited us to have breakfast in the beautiful garden of the pension. For a fact: we both like Romania and the Romanian people!

Somewhere it has to go wrong you would say…After a day hiking in the mountains and a camp party with a huge Romanian family who didn’t speak any English (lot’s of fun, huge camp fire, loud ...

... die haben wir aber nicht finden koennen. wir konnten aber problemlos von Crisan nach Tucela ohne Reservierung fahren.
Crisan liegt am Sulinaarm - Dieser Arm wurde egradigt und ist damit der langweiligste der drei Arme, aber auch der mit den besten Anbindungen.
In der Verwaltung des Delta Dunarii (am Hafen, neben dem Bahnhof) kann man sich Touren zusammenstellen lassen. Wir haben aber ...

Golden Sands (Bulgaria) to Constanta (Romania)

Sunny periods 29 degrees

We left Golden Sands and travelled north to Constanta. The drive was fairly easy as we passed huge fields of barley, corn and sunflower (must be stunning when flowering). We also passed some new wind farms. We crossed the border with a little difficulty as they scrutinised our car paperwork but finally let us continue. We arrived in Constanta without a ...

... when we got there we discovered it was closed for renovations so we just walked around it and checked out the exterior. It was really interesting and I really would have liked to have seen the rest of it.

Not far from that fortified church is another one in Prejmer. This one was open and the woman selling entrance tickets was very helpful. After Ally and I had explored the inner fortifications and the church we were about to leave when she ...

Dear friends, After a few days of intense suffering, Luana's father passed away on March 1st. While relieved to have gotten a chance to see him before the end, we are nevertheless shocked and confused by this sudden change of fortune. Ion was a kind, jolly and witty kind of person and both of us were very close to him. He will be greatly missed by the family and his many friends. We wanted to thank all of you who have been close to us ...

... Romania. Found decent Italian restaurant but had a dj banging out **** western pop music very loud. Made a kind of joke with waiter like I couldn't hear him but the music remained loud until a business looking man with family complained. Ate my spag bol and carlsberg as quickly as possible and went to another bar where the beer was better but I was the only customer and waitress didn't ask if I wanted another drink, so I didn't. Walked back to hotel past busy boulevard and to sleep.
