[QUOTE="nikki, post: 703178, member: 18126"] Hi again everyone!! Nice to hear from you guys :) Just another update from Romania - it's Tuesday 2:30 pm here at 6:30 am back in Chicago. So I guess turkish toliets aren't new to all of you but the funniest thing about the ones here is the foot prints that you're supposed to stand on ;) Cal - we'll be on the train Thursday - I have heard about the bathroom system - I can't wait to snap a picture if it's safe to go near there. Natty - no Reddog I went solo on this trip - nothing like an adventure across the world by yourself! I wish Red was along for the fun! I have decided that the food sucks! It may be dirt cheap but I can't wait to get home and eat a real meal. My sis and hubby live off of french fries and pastries. Barf! It's actually very Americanized here. I've went to 2 days of classes with Manna and Tony (between 7th and 12th grade) and the students know awesome English! The 7th graders were telling me about their current course load which includes FIFTEEN subjects - English, Romanian, either French or German, Math (Algebra and Geometry), Latin, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, History, Geography, Writing, Music, Art, PE, and Religion I think. Most students know 3-5 languages pretty well! I have been Christmas carrolled in Romanian, English, French, German, and Spanish! Pretty impressive! I also brought in a Racer X and some of my motocross photos and they were all very interested! Some students knew of guys like Pichon, Everts, and Smets so that was pretty neat. They knew about freestyle too - but not much of guys like RC or MC. Last night we shot some pool with a few high school students and had a good time. Of course the high school students had to help me brush up on my Romanian swear words. The bar music was all American - so that was kinda fun. Lots of places play American music - mainly rock, hip hop, R&B. Most all of the TV stations are all in English as well just with Romanian subtitles. So I've watched a few movies on HBO like Gladiator and some funny Miami something or other movie. MTV and VH1 is cool over here too. Married with Children is one of their favorite shows! American Wedding (American Pie 3) is in the movies as well and it's like $1.50 for a movie and another $1.50 for pop/popcorn. We went to "Big Momma's" for a snack the other day - there is a lady who looks like Aunt Jemima on their sign. It's kinda funny because there are no black people in the city (or Romania I think?) but they got Big Momma's :) Thursday we start a day voyage back to the capital and will be stopping in Brasov and Sinaia on the way. Sibui, Brasov, and Sinaia are all in the heart of Transylvania and Brasov is home of Dracula's castle. So that will be a fun tourist attraction! Then back to the craphole capital - Bucharest (2 million people). I'll be home and jetlagged on Sunday! [/QUOTE]
