Day 32. Tail wind to Zimnicia




Well that was an interesting night. The pipe fell off the back of the toilet and swamped the bathroom so they upgraded us to the honeymoon suite anyway.
   It's Saturday so we're going to have a quiet day, haircut , nice breakfast and then a bit of sight seeing. 
7.30 and open already. Still only $3 even for women ( shirt on )
Only one of us at a time for a look. That little gypsy boy is just waiting for his chance
As we get further east more peasants are using donkeys .often 2 at a time.  Today seemed to be flour delivery day as people were waiting on the roadside for these wagons to drop them off a huge sack .
The haystack builder.
  Although many people live in squalid little huts, there are signs of growing affluence . In this village I counted over 20 huge houses under construction
Maybe it's because Bucharest is not far north by BMW
   This old dear has been down to the granary and picked up the corn dropped by the trucks. She had about 3kms to go home. Christine wanted to take it for her!
Fixing cars, sorting onions, hay making , all typical Saturday morning stuff. 
  This road marker also marks the 2500 km mark for us. 
  The cyclists name is Christian and he's from Switzerland. He's ridden to The Black Sea and now he's riding back?
  He confessed, it's a battery assisted bike
Well that was a nice leisurely day ,tail wind all the way,and now we're here in Zimnecia. Getting closer !
