One final walk

Back at the hotel we rest for an hour before we go out for one final stroll around the hotel. We've not had any chance yet to see the immediate vicinity but clearly we are situated in beautiful surroundings. We ask at reception where best to go but they don't really know, they just suggest we follow the road a little up the mountain. So we do just that and finally catch a more relaxed glimpse of the countryside. You can see the sheer rock poking up through the trees and you wonder how anything grows from these mountains, but clearly it's fertile ground as all the mountains here are covered with thick forest. All the other large buildings around are also hotels, each quite unique and beautiful and with clear views of their own of the countryside around. When I pictured Romania at the start of my holiday plans I didn't quite picture beauty and luxury quite like this. Not to forget the hospitality.
