As we get more used to road conditions and drivers, Romania is starting to show its beauty. Today also brings together the full field, as we meet near Eisenmarkt for the first party of the trip. For us that is an opportunity to fulfill one of yesterdays road mission and visit the Ice Cave.

Today....
Katharina made delicious breakfast
We climbed our first Romanian mountain
Visited the ice cave but learned nothing (all i. Romanian)
Made some roadside friends and offered them a drink
We told Berti and Klausi manta jokes until they let us sit in their car
Heard a band nobody could seeLeer más

26 de agosto de 2019, Rumania ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
Another day in Romania took us from Eisenmarkt to Bucharest and wow is this country stunning.
We are in love with Romania and how different it is to anything we have experienced before. The driving also got a little better as we decided to fit in with the locals and take traffic rules as mere recommendations.

Today...
We tested the little citroens offroad capabilities the first time
We met most of the potholes in transylvania in person
We drove the highest paved road in all of Romania
Survived rush hour chaos in Bucharest and enjoyed the old town

Día 6
Day 6 recap
27 de agosto de 2019, Bulgaria ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
We are starting get the hang of this... Less stress, more km covered (560 today with no highways), more excitement. Crossed from the spectacular and chaotic romania into Bulgaria. Which was a big surprise! Great infrastructure, sensible driving, a landscape that kind of looks like the german eifel region and they even use the same traffic signs. Felt like a return to home... If it werent for those fascinating remains of socialism.

Today...
We found the heaviest building in the world in Bucharest
We traded our Bible for a little steam train childrens book, which took a nearby box by surprise
Katharina entered a church and immediately pulled out her wallet
We visited draculas grave
We crossed into bulgaria
We found an ufo. Unfortunately it was leaking badly
I had to use the high suspension setting the first time. Only two non offroaders dared to go up their, the other guys list their exhaust =) (video has terrible sound)Leer más
Viajero Das ist ja alles aufregend und macht Lust nach mehr. Ich bin richtig froh dass ihr die Rallye fährt. Bin gespannt auf Morgen!☺

Día 8
Day 8 recap
29 de agosto de 2019, Albania ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
After arriving in the dark yesterday, we realized in the morning our campground was right next to lake ohrid. Great opportunity for a morning swim. We made friends with a Moldavian family and got invited to a delicious breakfast. So delayed departure again, but only 15 km to the albanian border.

Today we...
Traded our little steam train book for a cap and a bottle of wine
Drove some beautiful but really rough roads
Tried ro have lunch in tirana but got stuck in a traffic jam for 90 min at 45 degrees heat
Got lost so bad on a shortcut, a local farmer jumped into our car and guided us for 30 minutes
Se up camp at kep i rodonit

Most tiresome day for us so far and more or less wild camping at the of the day, stray dogs barking all night, trying to access our tent. The adriatic sea made up for it though and what was a tough day at first will become one of the most cheerished memories.Leer más
Viajero Was für eine tolle Zeit 💓
