It’s about 10 pm, we’re about to jump on this train, take the overnight train from Istanbul, Turkey to Bucharest, Romania. It’s a 20, 24 plus hour train ride. We arrive in Bucharest tomorrow around 7, 8 pm, so, should be interesting. We’ll see how it goes. It’s crazy, I am sweating so bad. The air con is broken. We’ve been sitting here for over 20 hours. I’m absolutely exhausted. We have a small little window, poking our head out the top just to get a bit of fresh air. The conductor, I have no idea where he is, we have no idea where we are. It’s meant to be there a few hours. I don’t think so, it was running pretty late. It’s about 4 pm now. We’re running out of food, so I hope we get there soon. It’s crazy. We made it. We’re in Romania.

'Dracul' and not 'Dracula' means 'the devil', not 'the son of the devil'... and 'Dracula' is Stoker's invention. 'The noun drac "dragon" itself continues Latin draco. In Modern Romanian, the word drac has adopted the meaning of "devil" (the term for "dragon" now being balaur or dragon). This has led to misinterpretations of Vlad's epithet as characterizing him as "devilish".' (Wikipedia)
Sighisoara, Brasov, Sibiu, Alba Iulia, Cluj Napoca
In the history existed a king named Vlad Tepes! Vlad Tepes was nicked Dracula

Is there a place one could get a copy of your entire travel notes/plans so that we could use it, with adjustments. Instead of having to create a whole plan from scratch?
