I have made some google earth animations to show 2 of my planned holidays in 2019. The first of which is organised for April in Europe and will be travelling through the Balkans Region. A video of this can be found below: Then in the summer of 2019 in August I will travel west for the first time to the North East of the USA and up into Canada. A video of this can be found below: So if all goes to plan by the end of 2019 I will be above 40 different countries visited. You can subscribe to my YouTube channel here so when they go live next year you will be able to see my journey as I plan to make a daily video for each trip.

Today I would be heading back home to the UK after spending a week travelling around Romania. The airport transfer pickup was 03:45am and was only a quick drive to the airport, ready for my first flight just after 6am to Munich, Germany. I would be flying once again with Lufthansa and it was on time departing Cluj-Napoca. The airport was quite small so everything ran smoothly with the gates and boarding. A few hours later I landed in Germany and had a couple of hours to pass the time. I had to change terminals so this helped before leaving on the final flight of the journey home to the UK. I eventually landed in Manchester just after 09:30am. I collected my luggage and waited for my train home. I enjoyed my time in Romania, but I don't think it will challenge my top 3 countries that I have visited. With no current plans for the rest of the year, it's time to earn some money again ready for next year. A video of my journey home can be found here:

We had breakfast at 08:30am this morning and it would be our last full day together as a group of 10. We departed Apuseni National Park at 10am and by lunchtime after a couple of hours driving we were in Cluj-Napoca. We were fortunate enough to be able to check-in early as the hotel had everything ready for us. St. Michael's Church in Cluj-Napoca. We took our luggage to the rooms and then had a walking tour around the city. A few of the key buildings in the city were under renovation unfortunately, so a few photos didn't turn out as well as they would normally. After walking for around 90 minutes we broke away for lunch. Japanese section of the Botanical Garden. In the afternoon I walked to the Botanical Garden. It was nice walking around here as the sun came out at just the right time. The Japanese part was of interest as it reminded me of my time in Asia last year. As the evening approached I grabbed a Subway for dinner as my flight the following day was a 03:45...

The group had the chance for a good rest this morning as breakfast was not until 08:30am. At 09:30am most of the group went on a hike to get some nice views of the lake in Apuseni national park. After around 3km we split and a few people turned back. 5 people including myself continued on to do another 14km around the park before arriving back at the lodge around 13:30pm just in time for some lunch. Low water levels on the lake in Apuseni National Park. In the afternoon we had the chance to rest around the lodge, where there was a tennis court, table tennis table and an indoor swimming pool. We met up again the evening for dinner after enjoying some time to ourselves. Indoor swimming pool. A video from this day can be found here:

We started the morning by walking around the town centre of Sighisoara. We arrived around 18:30pm the previous night so it was nice to see the different shades of colours on the buildings in the morning sunlight. Just after 09:30am we started the long drive to the next destination of Alba Iulia. The colourful buildings around Sighisoara. We walked around the grounds of the citadel and also got our lunch here. The city has an overall population of about 63,500. At 14:30pm we were back on the road again heading towards Apuseni national park where we will stay for the next 2 nights. An entrance gate to Alba Iulia citadel. We arrived just before 18:30pm to check in with our group dinner 1 hour later. There are lots of activities around the guest house such as table tennis and a swimming pool. A video of this day can be found here:
