Sausages for breakfast? I do think so. Mainly as soon as I am on the road in a country that has pork I go crazy, since its either so impossible where I mainly stay, or so expensive, its not worth it. Full of food and ready to roll we start making our way.
Our drive today starts quickly, only about an hour out of camp, Cheile Bicazului is our main goal today, and when we get there, its is packed, tour busses, cars everywhere. People all over. Finding parking is a slight challenge. This was to be our big stop for the day, yet we only stay maybe 30 minutes and bail as we are over the crowds, now this valley im sure on a slow day is worth the stop… but on a sunny day. No way.
We meander a bit further down these mountain type roads till we find a lovely spot with wood to camp for the night, we get all setup, relaxed, beer in hand. Nek minnut, police, cant camp here. But of course, they know a place we can, their friends camp site, we head that way. A hole in the wall.. no way so back on the road we go.
But as a winner we do find one of those rides where you go down the track, I am after a family, the guy looks at me and goes, “did you want to go fast” a simple head nod and we wait a little longer, I still caught them by the end. Brakes are for the weak.
Finally we find our camp for the night, a lovely field, we setup, for the second time, and make a small dinner and enjoy a few drinks. As the sun sets, Pina is a bit on edge, he can smell something. So now we are also quiet. Now, Romaina has a slight bear problem, and we don’t see it but we can hear it attacking the local livestock, the dogs are going mad in the village near us. The noises are actually quite alarming, flash lights on, head lights on.
Well, that’s enough of that, record speed pack up. All lights on, we are out of here. We drive into the night a few hours and park up inside a town at the local park. Suzie cracks the shit on setting up a tent 3 times in one day and sleeps in the ute. The swag takes all of 30 seconds, so we sleep well.
