Life Between Bible Clubs and Meetings

**Transylvania**

After the teams left, I (Susan) had a day of rest and then turned around again on a train to Sighisoara with 2 girls from Virginia. The plan was to spend a few days in Transylvania resting, relaxing and enjoying the sights. I traveled with 2 girls by train and Andy drove his car with another lady from Virginia and his wife and son. We all met up in Sighisoara and then made our way to Medias and then onto Sibiu. We covered 3 cities in 3 days. Along the way we saw several Saxon churches, beautiful citadels and old historic city centers. Romania has so much history and sights to see. Also, Sibiu is the European Cultural Capital for 2007.


**Western Romania, Arad**
After returning from Transylvania, I made a quick turn around. This time it was with Wes and with Oti Bunaciu, our pastor at Providence Baptist Church. He had some responsibilities to take care and asked us to join along on the road trip. During our four days with him we attended a baptism service, a gradation service for the seminary and another church service where his family attends. We had such a wonderful time getting to know his extended family and seeing where Oti grew up. Another purpose of the trip was for Oti to pick up the new puppy he got for his son, David. The dog is a black lab named Shadow. He was so much fun behaved so well the entire trip. We look forward to when we can go back to Western Romania.

Wes, you have a hard time staying away from the puppies... Does it make you miss Simon?

Would love to go to Sibiu the next time we are in Romania.
