I finally managed to locate the center








Everyday someone makes plans with me, they invariably choose to meet me either at Unirii or the Center.
Unirii is still okay, I manage to get there without getting lost. But there is a big temptation on the way, the Bega Mall. I almost always manage to take a pit-stop in there. Three floors of awesomeness.

Don't even get me started on the Center. I know it exists, but its like a myth, I've never seen it myself. Until this day of gorgeous spring weather, I managed to wear some gladiators (my feet were so thankful after months of boots and sneakers) and I went in search of the Center.

Some jewellery shop lured me in, then I managed to get myself into a icecream store. Along the way, I got lost. With my barely understandable Romanian, I asked someone where the Cathedral was, and that amazing girl walked with me all the way to the Cathedral. She said it was no problem and that it was on her way, but I have a sneaking feeling that she was scared I'd get lost again.


I finally bought some postcards at the Cathedral.
The statue of the wolf with Romulus and Remus (founders of Rome) in the center


One of the little kids fell in the fountain. Don't worry I didn't rush and help him, I was there in the back laughing and enjoying the moment

Lo and behold, I was in the Center, taking photos like the true Asian tourist I am! It's my favorite part of the city now. I bought some corn on cob and plonked myself on the bench to enjoy some sun.
