Lunch near Babele

At the cable car station there's a small cafe where we get a couple of toasted sandwiches and a pepsi. Outside, through the windows of the cafe, we just see a thick cloud. It's so thick here that we actually see the fog tumbling through the windows and into the cafe. I can't quite capture this in a photo so instead we get a shot over the edge. We really are in the middle of nowhere here. We look for some toilets and downstairs a sign indicates 1 RON each (about 16p). Wandering around are also what I can best describe as gypsies, women and children mostly, who give the impression they either live here or spend their lives nearby. One of them offers to unlock the toilet. Inside are two toilets so we go in together. They are each a hole in the ground and the door closes with a counter weight on the inside. As we enter the lady says "no water". I don't think I'd want to touch the taps anyway. So we do our business and rely on anti-bacterial hand gel. A few minutes later and we're back on the final gondola journey.
