It is around 680km from the Hungarian border in the North to Bulgarian border in the South. The single lane road between Arad and Pitesti swerves through the Carpathian Mountains culminating at 2000 metres altitude. We pulled our way up and down mountain passes slowly. We covered 500km in 14 hours.
Quote of the day:
"I don't think we have enough gears to reach the top of this hill."
Camila was breaking up. The exhaust pipe must have cracked. It made a rattling farting sound. It was so loud we couldn't listen to music anymore. So we enjoyed Radio Engine and switched gears to change the tunes.
We must have looked a mess. Romanians on the side of the road were making fun of our convoy.
Once we reached the motorway at Pitesti we had to rest. We were both knackered. Against the advice we were given we slept for a few hours.
