Bears

About a week before we arrived a bear killed a US back packer in the mountains above Sinaia. The bear approached the girl's camp, where she was with her boyfriend, and apparently the flash's of them trying to photograph the bear agitated it. It killed her and badly injured her boyfriend.
Well tonight, it visited us. There it was about 30 feet outside the conservatory window. An absolutely HUGE grizzly. I don't think Hanna will sleep tonight. No photos I'm afraid, but what a sight. The bear I mean, not Hanna!
We've all gotten very tired now. Tonight I saw Erika lose it with a group for the first time ever - nothing major went wrong, they just wouldn't listen and she exploded. Didn't do them any harm! I was quite proud of her.
Tomorrow off to Brasov, up the seated mountain chair lift, then bowling then hopefully the Mexican restaurant. Boy do we need a good meal.
A few things to bring back memories for those who have been here - Danny de Vito, Midge bites, Joes, Cappucino, fried eggs, Norman, Maxi-taxis with 40 people, bad breath, smelly feet, too warm to sleep, lay lady lay, Santal, beautiful water melons , nectarines, fresh bread, dogs barking, starry skies, mountain dew, pizza americana, cheese triangles, rough toilet paper, come on, you know you miss it!!!!!
