I had to drive through Bran in Transylvania yesterday (this is where the "Dracula Castle" is) and this time I noticed that all of the trade there is done in three languages, Romanian (obviously), English (understandable) and surprisingly, Hebrew. One also can hear Hebrew spoken everywhere in the shops and the restaurants too. Israelis seem to love this place.

STRUDEL!!!


Fascinating to discover that cake is labelled in three languages. I would never have guessed at Hebrew being the third, either.

Is that date squares on the right?  I love date squares.  Had no idea they had those over there.

No, those are not date squares. I think they don't have them here.
I did see Dracula's castle this time again but I did not go in like we did last summer, I was just driving by. I still have to do that post on it for you. It is really difficult to photograph though, I hardly have any decent photos of it but I should have some.
I don't know what is the Transylvanians' take on Strigoi these days. I think I will ask a couple of them tomorrow.

Ha! the sign says it's apple pie, I didn't see what the sign said when I looked at the pic on my phone screen, now that I see it on my computer screen I can read the sign.

Yes I want to see Dracula's castle. One of these days I'm going to take a trip over there just to see it up close. It's on my bucket list.
