Inspired by Claudia&Doug’s recent posts (here, here and here) about Transfagarasan I decided to search through the pictures we took last summer. Here’s some of them (click on the pictures for larger versions):

- nice waterfall, we could see it from a far distance

- the asphalt was good and we loved the turns

- the small blue thingy is a helicopter flying at lower altitude than the road

- another picture of the chopper

- lots of springs and waterfalls

- yes, donkeys, not such an uncommon thing to see on Romanian roads but still we couldn’t stop laughing

- about to enter a cloud, last good pictures taken

- the road had lots of sharp turns

We took almost no pictures at Balea because we were in the middle of a cloud and visibility was down to a couple of meters. We were about to fall in the lake while trying to get to it; luckily we heard the sound of some spring pouring into the lake.

We did take some pictures at Vidraru dam:

- doesn’t seem that a big distance, does it? Well, I tell you it is! BTW: I’m an acrophobic!

- the lake was at it’s highest level I’ve ever seen

- Scary? Or just awesome?
