In Romanian: fericit ziua de nastere
Getting from Bulgaria to Romania wasn't so straightforward. We had to cross the Danube River - the second longest river in Europe. And the big problem is that the ship bringing us across has no fixed timing, we had to wait till it comes (when? well, it will come when it comes!). Not only that, because the nearest bridge to cross over is far away, the shuttle service over the river is extremely overpriced. But here I am, waiting to cross the river and preparing a sign so that we can hitch a ride to the nearest town once we get to Romania. :)
The five days spent in Romania was pretty adventurous. This is taken in a defunct mining town of Lupeni, we arrived in this mountain town a little too late and missed the connection to the next place. Luckily we met a nice family who took us into their home and in the morning, we took a walk in the forest. The father of the family used to be a coal miner, he pointed out to us where the coal in the forest were and how to mine it!
