Cefa, Romania lovely little churches in the villages




church in Oradea, Romania

life in the villages

How "old world" it looks! Especially with the snow.

Were you there recently?

Thanks for sharing your pictures, here and in other areas on cruiselinefans!

Man -- brings back memories. We did a "mission" trip to Timisoara back in 1991 to lead a teenage summer camp in the Transylvania Alps. Our then one-year-old Ford Aeorstar (remember those?) broke down and we had a couple of farmers in a village repair it

We still stay in touch with the people we met twenty years later. From the look of things, not much has changed.
