The 11 hour train ride to Budapest wasn't that bad. We were sleeping on top of the brakes unfortunately, so the noise was a bit loud - but didn't prevent us from sleeping. We had to stop at the Romanian and, shortly thereafter, the Hungarian border for immigration at around 4am. While performing his duties as he should, the Hungarian customs officer made me take out the chess set. This was a bit annoying, as we had very little tape to piece the homemade box back together, but whatever. I guess I was just bothered that I had left it in plain sight - as I could have lots of illegal items in the sink, under the bed, in the blankets, etc. ;0 Lucky for the world I don't work for organized crime. |

We had all day to spend in Brasov today, as we had booked ourselves on the 9pm night train from Brasov to Budapest, Hungary. The train ride is just about 11 hours long, and we are hoping it will be a more restful night than we had on the last night train! Hopefully Romania and Hungary won't find it necessary to have everyone get out of the train at the border in the middle of the night, but you never know... |

Very very cold here at night. We found out there's no way to control the heat - maybe that's why our room is only $20 :). Luckily they give you very heavy blankets! This is one of the darkest rooms we've stayed in (and I already said coldest), let me also add quietest. A good setting for a night in Transylvania. To our dismay, nothing happened in the night. Around 5:30am, I awoke to birds singing outside. Oh well, maybe tonight Dracula will come visit us. |
