Trip to the Countryside

Some of our teammates from Hungary decided to come to Romania for Easter weekend and take a quick tour of some of the Transylvanian sights (Transylvania has changed hands between Hungary and Romania several times and there are still areas - including Targu Mures - that are predominantly Hungarian). They came into town Thursday evening, and on Friday we drove out toward some of the Hungarian villages with them. After about an hour on the road, they went off in one direction and we headed toward the village of Korund, where a lot of the traditional Romanian pottery is made. More souvenir shopping! And, of course, more picture taking, too!

Storks' nests are pretty common here, and now's the time of year when they are finally occupied again. Sarah jumped out of the car (after I stopped...) and ran back a bit to catch this picture.
