A few pictures (of many to come) from Transylvania

So it's been an atrocious amount of time, but, basically, I haven't had internet access since my last post, because it has crashed, twice now, in my dorm, and I've been elsewhere. Where? you ask.

Well, since last posting, I've taken a tour of Auschwitz, biked around Amsterdam, spent about 8 hours in the Vienna airport, taken a terrifying taxi ride (wrong way on a one-way, anyone?) through Budapest, and spent six amazing, exhausting and exhilarating days on a bus winding through the mountains and valleys of Transylvania.

That's where you come in...

Since I still NO internet access again, I'm posting this from [yet another] cafe in Krakow, and have already been here for a time. So...these are only a few snapshots from my travels through Transylvania, but I promise, promise, PROMISE I'll post many more as soon as I can. Prepare yourself.

What follows are, essentially, from the first day of the trip, March 27th, after we (and by "we," I mean me and about twenty other Lexia students, who are studying in Krakow, Berlin and Budapest, along with several Hungarian guides) had crossed the Hungary-Romanian border (another stamp in my passport--yesss!), and after I'd gotten felt uber-motion sick. Bring. It. On.

(Oh, and a couple random ones from my half-day in Budapest made it in, too (I spent a couple hours there after the trip, too, so you might get a better glimpse of it post-Trans trip).)

Here goes:

My first day of Transylvania
