Team Trip Part 1

For awhile now I've been trying to plan some sort of trip for our team to take together. There aren't so many options, especially keeping in mind the young kids who are coming along as well.
Finally we were able to plan a trip to a little town called Moigrad, about 9 KM away from the town of Zalau. I think it was a little under 2 hours to get there. Anyway, in Moigrad there are Roman ruins dating back to 106 A.D. Crazy, huh? I thought I could walk you through the morning.

For starters there's a shepherd whose house is on the land with the ruins. He's paid to keep the grounds clean etc... He was interesting. I told him that we were going to have someone translate but he just couldn't help talking a mile a minute and using, how to say...using that area's "accent" so to speak. It was impossible. Little did we know, nor did he tell us, that just behind him was this sign in English explaining what he was trying to tell us.
The funny thing is that what we did understand was him talking about how much 'better' it was during Communism and Ceaucescu's reign. Oh my word - his isolated living in these hills has really warped his thinking, I think.



In the center was a our guide, notice the looks of "nu inţeleg" (i don't understand) on everyone's face.
Caleb and Dani didn't want to stand around and listen either. They were much to exciteda bout the playground of sorts awaiting them behind the fence. So, they climbed it.
