Sibiu-Transylvania

The vampire-tour continues. We have now moved further afield, heading for the Fagaras-mountains. Things just keep getting more and more beautiful. When you think you've seen it all, a gypsy boy rips up the car door and asks for 'gummi.' We concluded it must be chewing gum, not condoms.
Driving through the mountains is quite hazardous, Abdul has picked up the natives' way of driving, much to my displeasure. Overtaking up the hill on the bend in the road over the bridge. That's the way to do it. But still, I maintain my composure and admire the dilapidated factories tucked away in the valleys, next to the beautiful medieval towns. It's such a juxtaposition. Again, we concluded, without any depth of knowledge, that it's all remnants from the old communist times. It' just so messed up. HUGE, and I mean HUGE, chimneys sticking out like a sore... chimney... with a Sound of Music-like backdrop. Can you imagine?? Maria singing in the Alps, with a MASSIVE chimney and factory next to the fields of Edelweiz??!!!! Aweful! But hey, we can't judge, these people need jobs. Lots of poverty.

OK, gotta go to the Non-Stop Supermarket and buy some "paine" and "fructi."

We're heading for Bulgaria in a couple of days, don't think we'll find an internet cafe in the middle of a UNESCO Biosphere reserve.

Ta ta for now.
