Hello from a weary Romanian traveler

We are in Sibiu--a once beautiful city that, thankfully, is under massive restoration. Problem is, we are in the center of it all: jackhammers, tractors, wire fences, and lots of dirt mounds. The hotel we wanted to stay at was filled with NATO personnel here for somekind of meeting...probably to locate missles in some Romanian cow pasture! Instead, we're staying in a communist-era hotel. Oh joy

Off to see a Jewish synagogue--I need proof that they still exist in Romania. Vlad's castle was a bit of a let-down but all the souvenir huts made it INTERESTING
