Pictures of Romania

This is the last edition of Thursday Thirteen. Thank you Leanne for Hosting this fun meme. Too much is changing in my life right now . . .

Here are 13 pictures of our first year here in Constanta. This is my first time to post pictures on this blog and for some reason, they would not go in the order that I wanted.

Hannah with a sampling of the abundance of apricots

Gabe and Holly in the mountains

Another picture in the Transylvanian Alps - Constanta does not look anything like this!

A fruit and vegetable market here in town

Fun in the summer under the grape vines - John put the water hose up in the branches and the kids had a great time.

A nearby store that I send Gabe to. He can get just about anything that I might need - one brand, one size and three customers is a crowd!

A goofy picture of Holly but I thought it was a good one to show how we have to step over a threshold or pipes in many of our doorways.

Gabe - outside view of a local store

Hannah practicing soccer in our yard

The road from Bucharest to Constanta - This is why I always say that it's a 3-4 hour drive. We never know when we will be held at a standstill in traffic. At least this time there was a beautiful sunset to enjoy.

A glimpse of our house from outside the gate- Gabe is playing basketball with neighborhood friends.

Our courtyard

This is the container that we had our belongings shipped here in. A similar one will be here on March 5th.
