Lazy morning and we headed into the city centre by bus in the afternoon. Chaos! We were stuck in traffic and it was baking hot and then our bus stop directions were wrong so we ended up miles off course.
Getting stressed we stopped for pizza and beer for lunch and then headed to the Parliament Palace. we luckily managed to get the last English language tour of the day after we walked around the entire edge of the palace grounds (1.5 miles) trying to find the entrance. The palace was huge the 2nd biggest admin centre after the Pentagon. The palace was super impressive- huge amount of marble and everything matched perfectly.
In the evening we met up with the whole group for a traditional Romanian evening it a beautiful carved building. I had chicken and chips. I also tried pate- yuk!
A few drinks later and we got a taxi in the early morning. An experience trying to find the campsite!
We spent 3 nights in Bucharest. Not a very pretty city and I wouldn't come back. I actually think everyone was pretty glad to leave.
We have moved onto a English run campsite in Veliko Tarnova. It's been nice to chill out in the sun. its been about 29 degrees today.
