Chegamos em Paris no meio da manhã. O dia estava bonito e ensolarado. Lembro de sentir aquele bafo de calor gostoso quando descemos do avião. Depois de 12 horas de ar condicionado, nada melhor que isso. Já sentia meu nariz melhorando. Embarcamos para BUCARESTE (Romênia), em outro vôo da Air France. O avião era bem menor e com menos atrativos também. A viagem era curta (2 ou 3 horas), mas foi bastante agradável. Ao sobrevoarmos o Lago Balaton, na Hungria, a vista do alto era belíssima. Impressionou o tamanho do lago. Chegamos em BUCARESTE por volta das 14hs. Trocamos dinheiro no aeroporto e tivemos nosso primeiro contato com os lei romenos. As bagagens devem ter chegado bem antes de nós, pois minha mochila não estava na esteira, mas encostada num canto. Bizarro. A mala do Márcio ... read more

Embarcamos em Guarulhos, rumo a Paris, num vôo da Air France. O avião era excelente, muito melhor do que todos com os quais eu já tinha voado. Havia uma microtelevisão pra cada passageiro, com opções de filmes, séries de TV, jogos etc. Achei fantástico!!! Infelizmente, meu nariz ficou escorrendo a viagem toda, então acabei sofrendo bastante. A torcida era pra ele melhorar quando chegássemos na Romênia.... read more

Europe » Romania » Muntenia » Ilfov » Snagov July 29th 1975

A tour bus ride though the Romanian countryside and forests brought us to Snagov and its famous monastery. The monastery is located on an island in Lake Snagov. This necessitated taking a tour boat to the island. The monastery itself is small, but of a decidedly Eastern European design, with four distinctive towers. It was built in the fifteenth century, replacing earlier structures dating back to the 11th century. Legend has it Vlad III, the Impaler (or Vlad Dracula = son of Vlad Dracul), is buried here, but no one knows for certain. From Snagov, our drive through the Romanian countryside continued to Sinaia. Sinaia, located in the Carpathian Mountains, was a quaint town. The buildings displayed a blending of German and Carpathian architectural styles, giving the whole place a fairytale quality. Siania is noted as ... read more

Europe » Romania » Muntenia » Bucharest » Centru Civic July 28th 1975

Another Aeroflot flight, aboard a Tuploev 134, brought us from Moscow to Bucharest and the beginning of travels though the Eastern Bloc countries. I primarily recall walking in a pleasant park in Bucharest, though we did see the Curtea Veche (Old Court) and many of the historic churches of the city, including the Old Court Church and the Metropolitan Church. Both had been royal churches. We stayed at the Hotel Bucharest InterContinental, opened only in 1971 and the tallest structure in Bucharest by far. It was located across from the university and afforded a view all over the city.... read more
