Constanta, Romania The Black Sea

Arrived a little bit late due to a slow down at the locks coming into the black sea. But we arrived at our final port safely. Well safely for us, but not so much for the guy who tied us to the dock. Look about 30 seconds into this video.

Had an excellent guide today for our tour, even though he was on puppy uppers the whole time. Constanta is the largest port in Eastern Europe and is very impressive. The Ethnographic Museum is beautiful. Ovid is the poet statue in front of the archaeology museum. St. Anthony of Padua Church was built in 1947..... even though there are only about 600 Catholic families in Constanta. And the She Wolf statue with Romulus and Remus nursing....it is an exact replica of the one in Rome.

Finished the tour with 45 minutes of free time in the town of Mamaia. A quaint little seaside district with sky tram and little mostly not open shops and restaurants. I will stay back and Can is taking a shuttle back into the downtown of Constanta.もっと詳しく
