... to it. <br> Interestingly, Romania has some sort of man crush on Amsterdam. The city was littered with sex shops and weed shops. That evening Jason and his Romanian girlfriend decided to cook us a staple in the local cuisine. I believe it was called yellow slop with a cheesy flavor and for dessert, breaded and friend yellow slop with a cheesy flavor. I shoveled all I could into my stomach with a smile before my digestive system decided to ...

We arrange for Monica to give us a tour of the painted monasteries. She is trained as a tour guide. Public transportation to these remote sites is very limited and would take several days to see the top 4. We take a beautiful route through the hills. The monasteries are surrounded by farms. We visit Voronet, Moldovita, Suceavita, Humur. They were built around 1500 with their exterior walls decorated in extensive and ...

... show the colors of fall, towns are fascinating reflections of other worlds &#8230;<br><br>The bus does not actually go to our destination, Suceava, but drops us off 30 minutes away. An older Romanian couple is doing the same transfer and helps us find the right bus to continue. This bus has to be flagged down from the main street.<br><br>In Suceava we are greeted by the owner of the hostel Monica. She does everything off season (reception, cleaning, giving of tours ...

... and never left. Great place. Feels much more like a bed &amp; breakfast (but no food except for the apples which I was free to pick). I have the hostel to myself for the first night and the bedroom to myself both nights. <br><br>It is only around noon so off to lunch at Consuelas. This is local. It is full of locals on their lunch break. No one there speaks English and no English menu. My little Eastern European dictionary is only sufficient to let me know what is ...

It is Sunday at everything except the churches are closed. CLuj has several large churches, one of which is broadcasting its sermon into the plaza. 20 people are standing outside, listening to the service while facing the church. Not sure why they don't go in. <br><br>I hike to the top of a hill for a great view. Two of the museums ...

Located out of town, but close to the economic area of the city, BLACK TULIP, a four stars hotel, represents the perfect destination for those wishing to rest. I have appreciated the room atmosphere, the quality of the services...and the high degree of refinement of the cuisine.<br>

... and ceilings. We walked into another outbuilding and there were tombstones in the floors and walls, and a couple had life sized reliefs in color. On we pushed, up to Targu Mures. The Palace of Culture has a stained glass museum with depictions of traditional Romanian legends. Unfortunately, it closes at 4, and we got there at 3:50. Instead we wandered around the fortified church, then pressed on to Bistri ...

It's been cold, wet and foggy and rainy since getting to Romania...ugggh. We motivated at an outrageously early time this am to get on our private transport to the train station for our 7 hour ride to Sighisoara. Due to time issues, the spirit of Mario Andretti temporarily entered the body of our unsuspecting van driver...thank goodness for Bonine my chewable travel sickness medicine. Whipping around corners on the ...

... Evangelic Church (which is closed), and for a pee break (I am dying loudly in the back of the bus to choruses of "no whining on Toto Tours" for the last several minutes before we finally reach a useable toilet). From here the road gets quite rough, and we begin to climb up into the Bargau Valley and across the Tihuta mountain pass toward Moldavia. Because Bram Stoker wrote extensively about this area in his Dracula novel, it has attracted the attention of vampire ...
