We had some free time today in between the church services (4 hours of church services today eek!), and we were taken to the Bucharest Mall. It made Short Pump look lackluster and behind the times. It was filled with great European stores and fancy Italian and British clothing. We didn't actually buy anything, but it was nice being around civilization again. What a contrast to what we have been around for the past two weeks though. It was weird to find something so up-and-coming-hip after we had been in the villages using outhouses for the past ten days. Granted, Bucharest is about 6 hours away from where we were in Sighisoara, but it was still a shock to my system.


This is the church in Bucharest. It was very different from the churches we were at the past 10 days. They knew Mighty to Save here! In Romanian and English! Very cool.
By the way: If you heard about crazy riots at the Presidential Palace here in Bucharest, yes we are FINE. We didn't even know about it till some people from the States contacted us online freaking out. We're fine.
We are staying in a bad neighborhood again tonight, but the place we are staying has a big gate, and we're on the third floor. Here is a link if you want to see video footage of the area we are staying in. We didn't do the footage, but its the same neighborhood, Farantar.
Mom, don't watch this til tomorrow. We will have left for the airport by then!
