by I’m writing this very short post from a rather cramped hotel room in Băile Herculane, a very picturesque town on the River Cerna. If you ignore the Soviet-era monstrosities, this place is reminiscent of Rhayader, a town in mid-Wales that we visited regularly when I was a kid.
My parents arrived in Romania last Saturday. The Timișoara bit was great, but since then we’ve had our ups and downs. That was to be expected I guess. We spent three nights in Orșova which is just down the road from here. The scenery has been beautiful and next time I’ll write more about that and post some pictures.
The UK is going through a very rough patch. The Grenfell Tower fire was almost unfathomably horrific.
