Good Byes To Be Taken and Given
Two days here and I can’t say I did much. Apart from the flight nothing really drew me to this place. Went to have a look at supposably the second biggest building in the world (was told the biggest was the pentagon?) it looked like a lot of big/boring white parliament buildings, and not even that big, it was actually so brilliantly uninspiring we didn’t worry about taking a tour inside, even though other travellers had ...
Scruffy Bucharest!
... Chicken Count Dracula which was delicious.

Errr, buy loads of booze and get drunk! What followed was lots of drinking (some of our group didn't appear to cope very well), me dancing with some ...
Bucharest and Good-bye
... front door were two metal bins for candles—one on each side of the door. One side is for candles and prayers for the living and the other side is for the dead. Claudia said that it was okay for us to go in and look while the service was going on. As we learned a few days ago, it is okay to come and go during the service.
