This weekend we went to Poiana Brasov in search of a bit of R&R after all the stress of the past weeks. We spent two nights at Pensiunea Stejaris which was very nice, though a bit on the expensive side.
Saturday we went into Poiana Brasov, parked the car at the bottom of the slope and started hiking up the mountain towards the Postavaru chalet. It was actually very sunny in Brasov when we started up the mountain but we soon found the 70 cm of snow they were talking about on TV. Even more! You can actually see in the enclosed photo that I'm standing on a big bank of frozen snow and the spring landscape behind me is simply bathing in the sun. Costi, congrats again on a job well done buying those snow-guards (also seen in the picture).
After we had some light lunch at the chalet, Costi and I rented some skis and tried out the icy snow. It's amazing how I was still able to ski (no matter how poorly) after more than 10 years of ski-less winters. This year's snowboarding might have helped a bit, too.
Today we spent our time visiting Brasov, eating, driving and having a good time.
