Day 8. 10th August 2020/2006

Most of these photos are of: Cozia Monastery, one of the many monasteries they have in Romania, Most of these monasteries were built centuries ago and are still in Service today ⛪🇷🇴😄

Cozia is one of many Monasteries, I, My Husband: Special Duckula, My Aunt and the tour group visited in person, during Our Transylvania Trip🙋‍♀️🦆⛪✝️🙋🏻‍♀️🇷🇴

Photo 6: Is a painting of The Transfiguration Of Jesus Christ, on an altar. People Pray here and leave money, as gifts of Faith⛪✝️🛐🇷🇴

Photos 3 & 4: Are of paintings called: Frescoes, they are Handpainted on the ceiling of Cozia Monastery. The Fresco, in photo is of Jesus Christ✝️⛪🇷🇴💖

Since I'm a Christian I really enjoyed looking at these monasteries, the artwork inside them is very inspiring and beautiful ⛪🙋‍♀️💖.

Photos 8, 9 & 10: Are of Me at one of the many Restaurants, I, S Duckula, My Aunt & all the Tour Group went to in Transylvania, Romania🇷🇴🙋‍♀️ ☕🍽

Since this is the End of This Year's Transylvania Week(2020).

Myself & My Husband: Special Duckula want to say,

Thank You To Everyone who's Liked and commented on our T.W posts this year🙋‍♀️🦆🇷🇴⛪🏰🧛🏻‍♂️🏔💖😄

Today's photos are of: Cluj-Napoca,

A big city in the Transylvania region of Romania 🏩🏙🇷🇴🌲

Another cool place that I, My Husband: Special Duckula, My Aunty and the rest of our group visited during our Holiday🙋‍♀️🦆🚎🏙🇷🇴

The first few photos of:

St Michael's Cathedral in Cluj-Napoca 💒⛪🇷🇴🏙

Photos 5 & 6 are of: One of the Trams (Trolley-Buses) that travel around parts of Cluj-Napoca🚎🚊🏙🇷🇴😄

Photos 7 & 8, are of: A statue of:

Matya's Corvinus, it is A War Memorial, in front of the Cathedral⛪.

Photos 9 and 10 , are of: A University in Cluj-Napoca 🏢🇷🇴🏙.

I have a fun fact about Cluj-Napoca, that I know by being a Count Duckula Fan?🦆🏙🇷🇴😄

In the Count Duckula series, sometimes, the characters do go to a cartoon version of city in Transylvania called Cluj, (which is a shortened version of Cluj-Napoca) but the Duckula series Mispronounces the name, calling it "Cludge"! 🦆🏙🇷🇴😄💜

The two Duckula series, Episodes, I know mentioned Cluj, are: The Show Must Go On, (it starts in a theatre in Cluj) and Hi Duck (uses Cluj Airport)🦆🏙🎭🛫🇷🇴😄

I was so excited to visit a location used in the Duckula cartoon, even if Cosgrove Hall Films/Productions didn't know how to pronounce it right,

I now know how to say It probably, lol🧛🏻‍♂️🦆💜🙋‍♀️🇷🇴🌲🏙😂

6th August 2020/2006🧛🏻‍♂️🌩

Sighisoara, Mine & Special Duckula's 2nd Favourite Place in  Romania, this time in the Bucharest region🏔🏫🇷🇴🙋‍♀️💜

This is @specialduckula 's favourite place in Romania too🏔🏫🇷🇴🦆💚

Sighisoara is an Ancient Citadel: A Walled City, built high on a hill, designed to keep the People who live inside the City safe🏔🏡😄

While keeping Invaders out!🏔🧱😡

My photos in this post, show: Sighisoara's Famous Clock Tower, one of the Citadel's fascinating Landmarks🏫🏔🇷🇴💖

The city also has a Church on a hill, which is interesting because, the city itself is on a hill, then the Church's hill is on top of the City's Hill,

It's a Hill on a Hill!🏔🏫🏔⛪🤔😄

The 1st & 2nd photos: are the original photos, shown how they were taken in Transylvania🏔🇷🇴📷🌲.

The 3rd & 4th photos are the same photos, but now I've Edited them, using Instagram's editing options, including the 'Inkwell' Filter🏔🇷🇴📷📱

(I know I said this year I'd mainly be showing different photos from last year's ones. But for today, I'm making an exception to that!)

These photos are of Bran Castle, My Husband: Special Duckula and My Favourite place on the whole Transylvania Tour/Holiday,

It's the perfect Transylvanian Vampire's Castle! 🙋‍♀️🧛🏻‍♂️🏰💜.

Bran Castle, is famously also known as Dracula's Castle and My favorite place in Transylvainia, Romania 🏰👻💜 Although in Bram Stoker's novel Dracula, the Count's Castle was actually in Bistritz another part of Transylvainia, not bran castle. There wasn't a castle in Bistritz, though I believe someone has built a Dracula Hotel Castle there now, for the tourists😄🏰 Bran Castle is still the only Real castle that best fits the description of Dracula's Castle, it stands high on a Mountain, surrounded by Transylvainian Forest.

Bran Castle itself is a true medieval castle, with spiral staircases and spooky turrets, it's the perfect home for any Vampire😂👻🏰 🗻

I 💜 Bran castle because of it's Dracula's castle connection and it also reminds me of Castle Duckula, Count Duckula's castle in Transylvainia🙋‍♀️🧛🏻‍♂️🦆🏰😍🇷🇴.

I and Special Duckula loved visiting Bran Castle together 🦆🙋‍♀️🏰🧛🏻‍♂️🇷🇴😍

I Edited the last photo of Special Duckula with the Castle, using Instagram's Willow Filter, to make it black and white.

I like how atmospheric it looks!🏰🧛🏻‍♂️🦆😍

Here I/Vampireduckunicorn am sitting outside a Cafe in Transylvania, Romania☕🙋‍♀️🇷🇴.

My Husband: Special Duckula was with Me at the time too, but he is inside the black bag, around My waist, for safety! Which is why he's now standing in front of the photo, in the album🦆📷.

Me, Special Duckula and My Aunty, went around Transylvania on a Guided Tour holiday, led by a Transylvanian, Romanian Tour Guide Lady Called: Beatrice, but she preferred to be called, Betty🙋🏻‍♀️🇷🇴😁.

There were more people on the tour with us, who were guests like me & my travel party,

We all drove around Transylvania & other parts of Romania, in a little Tour Bus/Van driven by a Romanian Man, Driver, (sadly I can't remember his name!😔), who mainly spoke Romanian😄🇷🇴🚐🏔.

The next two photos in this post, are of Ancient Romanian Churches🇷🇴💒

As well as going to Transylvania because of My life long obsession with Count Duckula, I also wanted to go Transylvania for Dracula related reasons too, I first read Bram Stoker's Original Dracula novel, a few months before I went to Transylvania, in preparation for the trip, though I'd watched Dracula films long before that!🇷🇴🏔🦆🧛🏻‍♂️📖🙋‍♀️😄
