Countryside around Brasov A wild ride on some horsecarts. Loud singing to keep warm. We got a hot alcoholic drink afterwards, called Twicca. It tasted and smelled like gasoline but still it was might good after the cold! |
Icon Inside monastery. Right in the middle the icon of some famous saint is kept. |
Brasov Square, another view |
Church in the countryside |
Castelbran The famous castle of Dracula. Count Dracul was in fact a historic figure. |
Market Castelbran Souvenirs shopping. |
mausoleum In the tower there are the bones of 400 soldiers from the World Wars, here outside Campulung. |
Dinner Romanians are very hospitable people. |
Singing Romanians will break out in a song at any given opportunity. And well they sing! |
Dancing or break into a bout of dancing |
Group picture in the Monastery of Cuearte d'Arges where we were guided by the Secretary of the Bishop. We were also invited into the monastery itself (where the monks live) for a drink and some sweet stuff made of roses. |
Looking up and what did we see? |
Tower wonder Monastary towers which are straight but because of the lines they look crooked! |
Icon This very small monastery has a little village next to it where the nuns live. The chapel is built into the mountain rock. |
