Tortoise hiding in the trees
We aimed to beat the queues of tourists so departed the campsite early and walked the 4 km’s to Bran castle Aka Dracula’s castle. By the time we arrived the coach loads had beaten us to it and there were large queues for tickets although there was only one booth to buy tickets from and the queue was less than orderly. The castle was a huge disappointment and if it wasn’t for the large volumes of people traffic we would have walked in and out in 5 minutes.
From Bran we drove through the Bucegi Mountains to Poiana Brasov where we stumbled upon a large plain surrounded by mountains and fir tree forest. People were camping , having picnics and Bbq’s so we decided to free camp here for the night. Later that day we watched a shepherd and his dogs bring a flock of sheep and goats to graze in the field. The dogs were more interested in seeing what food they could scavenge, after half an hour the shepherd started running and crossed the road back into their previous field, he returned with four sheep which had been accidentally left behind.
