My health situation continued to be feverous and we decided to leave Balea and head to Curtea de Arges, which is a small town located about 70km south. On the way (still part of the Transfagarasan), we passed through a large dam called Vidraru from where it is possible to Bungee jump!The height is 166m. I suppose all those NZ Nevis jumpers (134m) should stop walking around as like Spanish peacocks...
Upon arrival around midday, we found a place to stay, which was easier than finding a restaurant. Apparently, people prefer drinking to eating in this town.
Nothing too spectacular happened for the rest of the day. There’s a famous monastery about 500m from the hotel but I was in no condition for it (although I could have used some divine intervention).
One general comment about all those cases where I’ve had some dead hours to spend. I typically watch the National Geographic channel, which is really interesting and is also the only watchable channel around.
