Wednesday 21st April

Up at 7 today, we had a visitor last night, of the four legged variety, bins emptied, cheese gone-out of container--footprints all over table....8am sun comes out--it's a beautiful day, I can see the snow top mountains they look like they are shining!! Off to Brasov today, with directions from Tony, to a shop calle Hornbach, to buy new ladder and padlock!......Very successful, we got everything we wanted....driving around Brasov we saw the usual Carrefour and McDonalds, then Lee spotted The Royal Bank of Scotland...we were not expecting that one.......stopped at traffic lights---they all have countdown timers on them....this is a huge town, lots of second hand shops? People just walk out into the road, sometimes on crossings--sometimes not and they don't even glance at the traffic--(Beverley says that explains why they have such large graveyards)-----There are white taxis everywhere and people sweeping the roads with witches brooms, we have noticed today that the horses and carts here have number plates........On our way back to the tent we stop at local supermarket called 'Wolf'---Lee bought a cheap hair dye for £2, now he has blond hair with blue streaks (his first blue rinse) he likes it!!! --- everywhere you look in the shops there is something with the name Hannah Montanna on it, it was the same at the castle---mugs T.shirts and games with Dracula--Vlad the Impaler and Hannah ---- happily for us Beverley grew out of the Hannah stage a while back!!!!
