Visit is over
Matt and John's visit is over, it was a success. Had a good time, and visited various places.
Also distributed gifts for the patients, had a good meeting with the head nurse and the new doctor.
Flat was clean and warm.
Glad that they enjoyed it too.

Cooler weather
After a few warm autumn days the weather slowly cools down. In the mornings in Brasov we now have around 0C so I am thinking now on replacing the summer tyres with the winter tyres. Hopefully tomorrow will get the new tyres for the winter. From the 1st November it will be compulsory anyway.

Visit to Mina, today
Just returned from the village where I visited the school and the hospital.
A new thing is that in Codlea, where the junction is, now they are working on the road to make a new roundabout, which actually will help turning left towards Vulcan. The work is funded by the local council.
The second new thing is that on the way towards Vulcan on the left there is a new contruction site huge concrete pillows stand, it looks that a kind of warehouse is built. On the right side there are quite many new solar panels.
Garofita is working in the kindergarten only in second shift. I brought there some clothes and shoes from our children, which shall be given out for the needy village children.
There is a problem in the school-kindergarten's boiler room: the ceiling is about the collapse, needs repairing.
I also brought back to the hospital some of the stuff I borrowed, also some towels are now washed and put back in the secured room.
John A. has done a few decorating work, especially the fence, gate and the building on the right side of the road.
The morgue is just as it was, no ventillation installed and some exterior plastering it would help.
The drying shed stands firmly.
Head nurse welcomed me, told her about the visit of Matt and John in November. She told me that the next big project is for them finding someone who could help in buying the tiles for this building on the right side, as it would need changing of all rooftiles.
Quite nice warm day in September, today.
See the photos below.

Due to the latest political events
in Romania, including the national referendum which will take place tomorrow in the whole country the exchange rate got crazy, yesterday it was 5.90 Lei for 1 £. We saw this rate going up on a daily basis in the past two weeks especially.
