Sinaia on a Sunday morning

As I said before, the sun was shining when we had to leave Sinaia, but we had time for a shor wakl and a few photos.


A view from one of our hotels windows.
Morning mist and remaining clouds.
Again, a view of our hotel.
If you got tired of the rooms, you could always enjoy the hallways. Loved them, yes, mostly because they were reddish.

Another view from the hotel window.



It was quite early, so the streets were almost empty. Too bad, becuase all the sleepy heads were wasting an incredible view!





On the road again, the winding way through the montains and the occasional views that I manages to catch on camera!

Bran Castle

No, Vlad Tepes was not a vampire...No, the castle is not ruled by dark forces...However, I am sure it is quite creepy at night!





As you can see, it was pretty crowded. It was raining that day and I do wonder how much crowdier it can get on sunny days.

View from one of the Castle's windows.

Views from balconies.












Different window, different view.
Some of you might remember that Natalia Oreiro came all the way to Romania to film a video in the Castle. This bed and the fountain in the interior yard were the main settings.


Outside views.

The photographer...


A small cascade in the Castle's garden.
Smaller dwellings in the same garden.

After visiting the castle, we returned to Sinaia, were our hotel was. As you can see, the rain cought up with us again...
