A long Way From Romania



Our last day in Brasov, Romania was spent with our new friends that owned and ran the guest house we stayed at. It was such a blessing to be with fellow believers and be bonded by our love for Jesus. In fact we had such a good time with this couple that we almost missed our train.
Did I say “train”? How about 28 hours on 3 different trains that took us through Romania to Belgrade, Serbia and then into the heart of Montenegro. I thought Cole was going to explode or that I was going to strangle him, but by God’s grace we all made it and even had some tired smiles as we got off that last train.
After spending a night in the capital we took the 2+ hour bus to Kotor, Montenegro which sits at the end of the deepest fjord in mainland Europe. To say this place is a natural beauty would be one big understatement. It is one of the most beautiful places on this green earth. To top it off we have been staying the last 2 nights in the Old Town which sits inside the fortress walls surrounded by water. The streets are all cobblestoned and the buildings are right out of the middle ages. The whole area is surrounded by mountains and the one directly above us has an old fort that we climbed the 1340 steps to this morning. What a view!

Tomorrow we are off to Dubrovnik, Croatia. I feel so blessed and thank God daily for such a wonderful trip.
