We arrived in Bucharest Romania after 18 hours of travel. Josh, Lisa and Ivy took us to Wichita, Mid Continent airport. Left there at 11:40 am, flew to Chicago, waited about 3 1/2 hours and changed planes. We flew from there to Dusseldorf Germany, waited about 2 1/2 hours then off to Bucharest, Romania. No problems anywhere. When we walked out of the terminal at Bucharest, Ninel and Roxana were standing there with a sign that said Litwiller, they had arranged for transportation to our motel, the Intercontintental in downtown Bucharest.
After getting settled in and resting Ninel and Roxana picked us up to go out on the town for the evening. We got to tour a bank building where Roxana works which was built in the late 1800's, it is incredible. It is now used for offices and corporate meetings.
We walked around a little looking at other buildings, then to a restaurant. I think they said the name in English would be Beer Wagon, because many years ago they brought the beer there from out in the country in wagons. We had an incredible meal and entertainment. There were some Romanian dancers who performed right next to our table. One of the ladies came over to me and before I knew what was happening I was up trying to dance with her. Imagine that, if you can. Later on there were a lot of people dancing and they even did the Macarana.
After dinner, we spent some time driving around Bucharest, we stopped to look at the Parliament building from across the street. Roxana told us she has arranged for us to tour it later this week, so I will talk about the history of it then.
More later.
