Sinaia

After going to Sighisoara, we headed back down toward Bucharest on the train and stopped in one of the nicest Romanian towns in these parts. Sinaia is a lot of a tourist town but there is a lot going for it. We staying in an old hotel near the castle pictured here. We also walked through some old forests and explored an old monastery (also pictured). Dana's body was having some problems adjusting to the new country and so we didn't get to climb the mountains as we wanted to. The whole campaign group is considering doing that in a few weeks on a Saturday. Mostly we just relaxed and spent time mentally preparing for the weeks to come. Sinaia was a perfect place to do this because it was quiet and seemed a million miles away from the city.
