Bacau airport

Possibly the world's smallest airport and also the most comfortable, which is good because I am three hours early.

Caffè latte

And now I am in a fast food restaurant where the air is heavy with the greasy fumes from the doner kebab machine and my ears are being assailed by the electro mechanical pop. The reason I've come inside is to cool down, I was sweating in a very disgusting fashion.

Is it normal to put drinking straws in latte coffee?

Top of the planetarium

I was allowed on the top to enjoy magnificent views across the industrial city of Bacau

Planetarium

So I'm in Bacau, killing three hours before I have to be at the airport. I went to the planetarium and had a special viewing in English, of course the whole thing is run from a laptop and so he only needed to click a button. I've been watching the movement of the planets and the birth of the universe.

Breakfast

The lady has made me this for my breakfast, and then brought a cup of tea, clearly the tea is specially for me but then she appeared with some honey and insisted that I put a teaspoon of it in my tea. I'm not sure what that was about and since she speaks zero English I can't find out.

Another beggar

Not only have I had to contend with begging Roma children but at this restaurant I have a importuning dog. I'd kick it but since I suspect it belongs to the proprietor it might not be a good idea.
