Goodbye Romania !!

As much as it was a grand feeling crossing the Donau river once again (first time when entering Hungary)it was allmost sad leaving Romania. I have loved running there; the fantastic nature and remote mountains and the wonderfull people !! Contrary to my expectations, and I guess most europeans', its a Great contry ! Let your worries about this former communist strong-state' rest for a while and go see for yourself :-)
Especially the North / North East is breathtaking and on an hourly basis takes you 80years back and forth; from wooden horsedraws carriges and wood-and-stone houses in tiny villages to the latest mercedes model, good tar roads and lux. hotels; and back again..

I'm going to miss this contry !Thank You for the experience; or in Rumanian, Merciers !!
