Romania, 21st – 23rd August
Our overnighting spot at Sighisoara was pay and display parking from 7am. In preparation we set a 6:45 alarm, at the sound of which I promptly rolled over and went back to sleep. Thankfully Matt has a more sensible attitude to alarms, so we succeeded in equipping the van with an all day ticket (5 Lei – about 80p/€1.10), and rested up for a couple more hours before going to see the town.We walked up the nearby hill in pursuit of a fictitious castle that existed only in our imaginations (forgetting that the signs had actually specified Citadel and not castle), and found ourselves in the old town of Sighisoara. The citadel/old town was made up of lots of cobbled streets and painted houses, and was altogether quite an attractive
