Transylvania Day 2: Brasov

Our car was moving and we were happy! We drove for about 5 hours straight to Brosov! Once we arrived at our Hostel and checked in it was about 7:30 pm and so we decided to hit the town for a little while! This church was about 100 meters away from our hostel! The grounds were open so we walked in!

These doors were so intricate... they were also two very different colors!

i was debating whether or not I should ring the bell, because you are usually not suppose to do stuff like that. So I asked Brent "Should I actual ring the bell" and this American guy walking behind the tower with his girlfriend responded "yes you should!" We laughed and so I rang it! I was scared we were going to get thrown out but apparently no one really cared! A few minutes later we heard the bell ring again! I can only assume our American friend rang it himself later!
in the same complex as the church was the graveyard. usually I love looking around graveyards but it was getting dark and this one was getting creepy. No green lawns for this place! They were stone monuments! I love it!


This is the famous monument in Brosov, the Roof is Black but by the time we got there we couldn't see much of anything!

WHAT A LINE! Is that Brent in the second to last? Yes, yes it is! What could we be waiting in line for?

This AMAZING CREATION! We saw people walking around with them and they looked so good we had to get one! It was 5 lei ($1.66 USD)! They gave us 8 different flavors (strawberry, coconut, banana, chocolate, vanilla, whip cream, blackberry, and apple).

This was the main square! People were everywhere just hanging out and it was a great feeling to participate in!
We really enjoyed our time in Brosov! After the town we stayed in our room and played cards for the rest of the night (until about 11 pm). It was a long and wonderful day!

I can't believe how beautiful the castles are. The first one looks like a Cinderella type castle.
