romania

The train took Peter & I from Hungary into Transylvania. Every thing was so cheap. We then booked into a hotel in central Bucharest which was making the most of the eclipse mania. Watching the Solar Eclipse was a great sight, a unique natual wonder. We seperated for some space; my solitude lasted 6 hours. I was joined by Selena; we travelled together for 5 days. We had a great but wet walk across the Bucegi mountain range to Dracula's castle. From there we travelled to the Danube Delta, a tranquil nature reserve. Via rowing boats we toured the enormous reed marshes. I returned to Bucharest to meet Pete and his 2 girlfriends, who had flown over from England and travelled with Peter.

From Serbia the flight landed in Coanda international airport, Bucharest. Checked in to my 4 star hotel and luxuriated. The next morning I toured the excellent military museum then met the lads off the train. We toured the stunning Palace of the Parliamant which had cost the people so much. Then we celebrated Fern's birthday and continued celebrations on the overnight train to Moldova.
