Homeward Bound!!

Our adventure is coming full circle. On the way back to Bucharest from Bran, our driver stopped at the Rasnov Citadel dating from 1225. It sits high on a hill overlooking the village. The view is spectacular. After admiring the view and checking out the ruins, we continued on our way to Bucharest to catch a flight to Copenhagen where we began. As our plane approached the airport we flew over the Oresund Bridge that we took over to Malmo, Sweden the first day. Our hotel in Copenhagen for the night was the Bella Sky and was such a dichotomy from where we began the day, historic ruins to space age ultra modern. But that's pretty much how our adventure has been, a wild blend of traditional & modern 21st century life. We've learned to adapt to our surroundings as we've traveled. Even the little things like finding a restroom were different everywhere we went. Some places say 'Toilette' and others say 'WC' (water closet). There were a few 'Restrooms' and one 'Pissour'. Yes, we did a double take on that one too. It has been a wonderful 3 weeks full of fun & new people. We met Alex, another Whitehall girl, for drinks & dinner on our last night in Copenhagen and met her new husband. It was great for Alex & Rebecca to catch up and to get to know her husband. Now we're off to return home. After three weeks of being away from our families we're ready to be back.Read more
