For our annual trip to Europe to meet family and friends we have decided to mix it up a bit. Given that our family seems to prefer to stay home this year we decide to fly to Romania for about ten days and then spend the rest of our time in Germany visiting new places and retracing some memories in Trier, the city where we met and spent nearly a year together. And then from Berlin we plan to do a one day trip to Poznan to add one more country to the list of those we visited together. Overall the trip was a great success marred only by weird weather patterns, it is was either too hot or too cold or too rainy most days.

- Arriving in Cluj after a long delayed flight
Flying to Romania is a complicated and long affair at best of times and it is not helped this time by delays from weather but we make it in the end - Three days in the historical city of Cluj
We spend three days together exploring Cluj before splitting up with one remaining a few more days with family while the other one moves to Bucharest - On top of the world or at least Cluj
During our time in Cluj we stay at the Cetatuia Hotel overlooking the city from the vantage point of the old Austrian fortress - The renovated Tailor’s Tower
After many years this is the first time we found the Tailor’s Tower open and visited it climbing to the top and enjoying the historical exhibits
