Adventures...
Border control guards in Romania entered our carriage, took our passports from us and then got off the train - with our passports...
...suddenly the train started moving and we were passportless in a foreign country. The train picked up speed so we asked the border guard - with a big machine gun - who was still onboard where we were going...
...there was no comprehensible answer from him! So we sat back and waited...
...after 5 minutes our train reversed direction and we arrived back at the same station. The other border guards reentered our carriage and gave us back our passports, and we were then permitted off the train...
...we waited for half an hour or so at the station and then got on another train to continue our Romanian adventure.Labels: Eastern Europe, Maramures, public transport, Romania, travel
