Monday June 9 - The end is here

I woke up at 9 and left my room at 10 and walked the 2.5 miles to the old town area we were at last night. Picked up some things and walked back to the hotel for lunch. I had my steps, activity calories and 5 miles in all before lunch.

Lunch was a small Caprese Salad and a seafood linguini at the hotels Italian restaurant. Unbelievably filling.

At 2:30 pm it was time for the tour of the Parliament building. This was an enjoyable look at history of a building that was supposed to be the new opulent home of Nicolae Ceaușescu.

The rain started while we walked into the building, and the downpour was so bad at one point that you could not see across the street from the windows.

The entry way had puddles as we left and the bus driver had to find many different routs to avoid flooded streets as we went for coffee and a snack. The snack was a bunch of little cakes and fondant treats.

Finally back to the hotel where I have to be up by 2AM to put my luggage out and downstairs to go to the airport at 3AM. So I ignored packing, caught up with emails and things, went for a walk to see if I could find any odd food items to bring home (I did not find anything) and have logged 17,385 steps and 8 miles of walking today.
