Suck your blood. We wake up on the edge of the park in Cata, Suzie has slept in the ute overnight, and is how do you say, agitatable. No no no, its all good, we are all a bit tired though from the late night. Luckily coffee is only 1 town away, and since this is Europe 1 town away is like 10 minutes. We stop in the bush for coffee and sadly the photos don’t show it well, but the hand is inside bear paw prints.
Our first stop is some natural wonders, a lake and some rock that is hexagonal shaped. Overall, not the exciting and a bit of a weird setup. We are here way to early in the season, or morning? There is nothing going on. We at least get a few steps in before moving on.
We make a pit stop in Brasov to print some papers and have an attempt at shopping in a metro, and unlike turkiye, and maybe it was just this metro, nothing is individual, seems its all bulk. So we leave empty handed. But that’s okay, because the next stop is Dracula’s Castle!!!
Well not Dracula, But Bran, as in Brans castle. Right off the bar, parking is easy, right on, off to a good start here. But we quickly start noticing tour bus after bus and bus pulling up. This place is packed. I mean packed, people are pushing to get in, it’s a bit shit that people can’t act slightly civilized. But hey.. my Instagram shots right?
But the Castle itself is worth the trip that’s for sure, tons of history, great write ups to read, and of course even a room dedicated to Dracula and other creatures of the folk lore. Remember folks, if you hear singing in the forest.. don’t follow it.
With a quick restock on the way out we are in no mood to camp. Airbnb baby, We have a nice cabin for the night with heat, hot water and a place to cook meat over a fire. Perfect. The drinks flow till late. In Oz, this would have occurred around the glass table, you know the one.
