Up in the mountains it is really cold, just 12°C in the morning with fog coming up from the valley. Autumn is in the air.
E79, an international main road connection in Bulgaria
Within the next 2 days we are planning to reach our home in Klosterneuburg /Austria. The shortest way is through Bulgaria - Romania - Hungary, not knowing that there are hardly any highways till Hungary just single lanes with trucks one after the other through small sad villages
The border from Bulgaria to Romania in the middle of the Danube
Before we drive up to the Romanian passport control we have to pay 5euro as a toll fee for the newly build bridge to the Bulgarian. Hopefully they use it to build better streets.
The villages on the Romanian side have a sense of positive vibes, although there are desolate houses, but the majority is kept in good condition, with their gardens and public places well maintained.
It's raining and foggy along the beautiful riverside of the Danube (can't take pictures while I am driving ). There is huge traffic jam which causes us 2 hours delay.
Before it gets dark we find Camping Motel Silvia in Slatina Timis beside the road with a nice garden.
The problem is, that we have only 7euro liquid money left and neither the credit card machine of the Camping nor the one in the village is working. . We were hoping to get a good meal in the restaurant, but now we have to cook something out of the stock we have left. The owner of the place is extremely nice and invites us to stay for free in the camping.
As we started our RoadTrip with rain in the evening, we spend our last evening from our RoadTrip with rain, homely in BlueBird.
