Hi loves,

Dupa cum ati vazut deja, weekend-ul trecut am avut ocazia sa ajung in Delta Dunarii pentru prima data. Totul s-a intamplat foarte repede, iar aceasta mica escapada a fost “planificata” cu doar cateva zile inainte, dupa ce Deea m-a sunat si mi-a spus: “Manuela, in weekend ne distram in Delta. Esti libera?”. Entuziasmul atingand cote maxime, evident ca raspunsul nu s-a lasat asteptat si intr-o fractiune de secunda am spus ” Let’s do this”.

Mi-am facut bagajul, mi-am luat efectiv strictul necesar (desi poate va vine greu sa credeti am avut decat o geanta de gym) si nici nu stiu cand au trecut zilele fiind apoi deja in masina in drum spre Murighiol impreuna cu Iustin, Deea si Maria, toti 4 fiind nerabdatori si pregatiti pentru ce avea sa urmeze.

Am ales sa plecam cu Agentia Discovery, iar aceasta s-a ocupat de intreaga experienta: drumul de la Murighiol cu barca pana in Crisan (localitatea unde am fost efectiv cazati) care a durat aproximativ o ora si jumatate, timp in care  am admirat flora si fauna deltei pe canalelei acesteia. In egala masura, va pot spune ca am ramas surprisa de “traficul” de acolo. Este un fel de Bucuresti la ora de varf (exagerez putin), dar barcile cu turisti erau atat de multe incat fara sa vad foarte multe, mi-am dat seama de potentialul locului si de faptul ca oamenii sunt entuziasti si interesati de aceasta zona unica.

Mai mult, am avut ocazia sa vizitam cea mai nordica padurea subtropicala si de asemenea cea mai veche rezervatie naturala din Romania ce se regaseste in Letea, sa mergem cu o trasura si sa ne lasam condusi de caii salbatici, dar desigur imblanziti de localnici, sa vedem dunele de nisip si lianele incolacite de trunchiurile copacilor.

Dupa aceasta experienta, cei doritori si pasionati, au putut sa pescuiasca la pluta. Este o alta activitate frecvent intalnita in Delta, dar va recunosc, nu a fost ceva ce mi-am dorit sa incerc. Imi aminteste de cand eram mica si mergeam cu tata la pescuit si ma plictiseam destul de tare. Nu ma intelegeti gresit, am fost pentru relaxare, dar pescuitul pentru mine, necesita multa rabdare, iar mie de multe ori imi lipseste :)) Dar “captura” celor care au pescuit, va spun, a fost impresionanta.

Un lucru este cert: experienta a fost pe masura si ma bucur ca am avut ocazia sa descopar un loc atat de frumos. Avem o tara superba si este pacat ca toate vacantele pe care le avem sa se desfasoare numai in afara acesteia.

Multumesc Agentiei Discovery pentru aceasta experienta care cu siguranta mi-a ajuns la suflet.

Voi ati fost pana acum in Delta Dunarii? Sunt curioasa cum a fost experienta voastra, daca v-a placut si daca dupa terminarea vacantei ati fost super zen ca si mine ♥

Va doresc o saptamana superba in continuare!

Kisses, M ♥

Hi loves,

Today I will tell you more about the beginning of our Asian trip. At the moment I am preparing to change places from Ubud, Bali to Seminyak, Bali. But first things first

We had everything packed and on 10th of June we took our first flight to Frankfurt in the evening, at the local hour. A small stop, a change of planes and we were right on our way to Bangkok. We decided to fly with Lufthansa, because at the moment when we bought the plane tickets it was the best option, taking into consideration the number of flight hours ( around 13) and also the price.

The only inconvenience, was the fact that our first stop was in Vienna initially , but it has changed and we had to go via Frankfurt and to add like 3 more hours to our flight and a longer waiting in the airport. A white night has followed, because I couldn’t sleep in the airplane, but since I was really enthusiastic I did not felt the flight so bad and we were already in Bangkok.

We spent only 2 nights in this amazing city. We picked FX Metrolink Hotel, which has a direct connection to the main airport and we had to get down at the Makkasan station. It was really easy to find it and lucky us, we managed to save some money and to go by the metro. The hotel was also really close to the  city metro station, called Petchaburi that we found really useful since it got us to the city center really fast.

We had some adventures on our way here, but everything went just fine in the end. For example,  had like 4-5 lighters and in Frankfurt I was suspected of having explosive :)) I think they just wanted to have to fun because I had 4 in my purse and those were the only ones they saw… while still having 2 on my jacket pocket, that I forgot about.

And another funny one, even if for us, at the moment was really disturbing, was the fact that on our second day, we w

anted to visit the Grand Palace. We did not knew that it is closing at 3p.m. but actually we were quite in time since we arrived in China Town aroung 1:30 p.m. and decided to take a tuk tuk to take us there. But come on… the driver stopped after 30 m to buy cigarettes, he told us that he will take us to visit another palace and also to a really great shopping area. All in all sounds great, but the small palace was not so impressive as the Grand Palace and the shopping area was more like a small local store with jewels produced locally, made to measure men clothing and some souvenirs… The thing we were going to discovered was the fact that the drivers always take to to these kind of shops because they get free gas if you spend there at least 15min and it doesn’t really matter if you buy something or not.

But getting back to our main problem, was the fact that this experience last for more than expected and we arrived at the Grand Palace at 15:03, so guess what?!?! The Palace was closed and I can bet that the driver knew the closing hour. Without a useless trip where we saw basically nothing, we would have arrived at 13:45 at the Palace and had time to visit it. If you plan a visit, just be careful because for one more euro they are willing to do different things and just keep you away from the schedule.

Just to keep our day still busy, we only had the opportunity to take the boat around, I don’t really know what :)) and after that we went to Lebua to have dinner at their Sky Bar, but we ended up at another restaurant a few levels lower, by the pool because we were not dressed properly, meaning that Iustin was wearing shorts and they have a smart casual dress code. So this is one more thing you need t0 know about this place if you want to have the most amazing

view in Bangkok.

Also the prices for tuk tuk are very different… :)) Some may ask you 25 or 35 Euro or $ while the ride costs no more than 6-7.

Anyway, we will still have the chance to visit the Grand Palace, even if at the moment we are in Bali, cause our departure will be made from Bangkok and we will stay there for 3 more nights. I will keep you updated if we will have a bit more luck.

I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Kisses, M ♥
