Wonderful Week in Brasov


We spent a wonderful week in Brasov looking for an apartment and we found one !!
This is in the hotel lobby.


We spent alot of time getting in and out of cabs so I thought this picture was appropriate.  Dan was awesome, getting newspapers, buying maps and calling ads.  He has been training for this mission for years, he's a natural. 

This is it!!

How do you like it??  Sorry I'll have to blog more pictures after we get the keys next week.
We are very excited because it is newly renovated and nice and new.  There is no elevator in the building (to break down) and we are located on the second floor. Just enough for lots of good exercise and not too much to wear me out.

This is our chapel!!Isn't it amazing.  We feel very spoiled to have such a wonderful place to meet.  Our branch is small but there are 3 children and 2 youth and several married couples.  We had supper with our branch president and his wife, attended the branch activity for women's day, attended the missionaries no smoking campaign, and attended church on Sunday.  We are beginning to get a feel for our city.

This is the Catholic Church downtown.  It is very big and beautiful.  This is an old WW2 Jeep that Dan thinks is Russian.  He was quite intrigued and had to take these pictures for his brother Ken.


Even though we haven't really driven a car for 6 months Dan loves to see the different cars here in Romania.  We saw a Toyota he had never seen before, it was a Corolla with a diesel engine.  There are lots of fancy Peugeot as well.

Here's two of our friends with their Russian Cachula's.  Don't believe anything a guy says wearing this hat.
