Brașov

On our way to visit our site for the first time, we were able to stop in Brașov. It is an extraordinarily beautiful mountain city in Transylvania. While many cities in România have a distinctly Soviet feel to them, due to the bloc apartment buildings that were constructed during communism, Brașov looks and feels like a medieval European city. Unfortunately we did not have too much time there, and the tourist sites we tried to visit were closed because it was a national holiday. That just means we'll have to go back!

  1. I personally like the Lotus Express: Possibly the best Chineese in town sign written all in English. That cracked me up.

    I also love Theron's McREL vest, if you wear that one out and want another, I will ship one to ya!
