Romania/ Snow/ Manificent LandScape/mad drivers


This is my last view Romania tHe mountains and the Truck
A full write up will be soon





The Old salt Mines at Turda that were going in Roman times have now been turned into a health clinic for children and people with chest problems .Breathing the salt air works so activities are in the mine a ferris wheel bowling mini golf boats in the lake to row 

Grand Mother and grand child

Outside my door at Dracula Castle hotel

You will just have lie on your side forgot to rotate the gorge at Turda

Mountains in the Back ground in  atypical village just after this the cows were pulling a plough and as we came round a corner Old mate is washing his carpet in the middle of the road. as it is flat and he can get good grip with the mop and scrubbing brush
THe Bear cave

Second night View from Hotel
Ride any one

Looking out from bear Cave

Snow on the road bit out of order


In the Snow

Right in the Snow

Still in the Snow

Outside Hotel Window next Morning

Wood work is incredible



 


On Way to more snow

Here It is


Merry Cemetery





Plenty of these around causing a bit of trafic hazard on the roads

It was a Fantastic journey and one we were lucky to survive with the mad drivers who are obsest with playing Chicken and ensuring it is always 4 lanes on a two lane road with all the pot holes and the man who digs them out for fixing into large swiming pools .The only problem is the fixing crew is a year or so behind.

What a fantastic journey Tim - though the cemetry not a patch on Recoleta in BA?!?! Some of the scenes could be Tasmania - it really is quite pretty here and the Autumn weather is setting in with cooler evenings and leaves turning on trees. Where are you heading - down this way at all?? Take care and keep happy! love Gill and Rog
