Our last tour in Romania

We visited Dracula's Castle in Transylvania. The castle is depicted in Bram Stokers Gothic Novel from 1897 Count Dracula. The castle may have house Vlad The Impaler, but there is no documented evidence  that Vlad ever was at the castle. It was actually built by The Crusaders because it is located so closely to an established trade route over the mountains. We toured the mid evil city of Brasov and Peles Castle built in 1875 in the town of Sinaia. It has been another adventure here in Romania. We have enjoyed our stay and have seen so much. Although, we are looking forward to seeing Katelyn and Callum in Amsterdam tomorrow and then flying home. We are anxious to get a hold of Ryan and Jenny for a long overdue hug. Also very, very excited to sleep in my own bed!
