2018-11-24 Day 74 Sat


I spent a few hours ringing distant relatives about the Yeo family reunion… Having trouble getting people to commit. So I offered to contact some…
Just after sunrise when john was out taking his camp photo the new boarder patrol arrived. John went over and had a chat to them they set up their binoculars and huddled in the car out of the cold. John was not 100% sure they knew we would be here.
We continued on the track and traveled out on the levee banks. Some of the water was frozen, with the swans standing on it. Finally made it back to terra-firma as a border patrol car came in saw us and turned around and parked. Not sure if they were just making sure we made it out or what, continued due south. 






Photographed some very white trees in the fog. Fog most of the day.


Decided to have a bite to eat in Galati. Ended up having a very late lunch in a restaurant at the top of tower with a view down over the Danube river. Lunch was OK and the view good but service was a bit slow although there was only two other tables occupied. After a relaxing meal and some red, we finally got to cross the Danube (at about camp time), the ferry loaded side on (no not too much wine) Never seen that before… To drive onto the ferry one drives across a barge and onto the ferry that is well tied on.
 


It was getting dark as we turned west along the levi bank John wanted a camp photo with the port in the background. A nice camp but the port appeared to work noisily all night. No tap water - still frozen.
