Public Transport

Of course, like in every capital city, to make the traffic more manageable, we have access to different types of public transport: the bus, ('autobuz'), the metro ('metrou'), the trolley (a mix between a tram and a bus).

The view from the wonderful trolly, on which we were aboard once (not twice, because in Belgium, we all know too well that they say 'once' at the end of every phrase... ) :

The metro as seen from the station Unirii (the metro tagged is not the blue line, which is the main line linking the south to the north (or the north to the south if you prefer), but a metro that goes, most notably, to Polytehnica (no, I didn't make a typo, there is no 'c' in this word in Romanian) a metro station located right next to the university's journalism faculty.

It is also on the metro that I saw :

1. A parade of weird angels (I will upload the video at some point to Youtube because it is worth seeing! ) :

   

   Two or three of the angels, were handing out flyers about their angelic musical theatre comedy week to passersby :

   

2. Two men on the metro with shovels :

   What could they possibly be doing with shovels, I asked myself. Shovels => Burying => or better said burying dead bodies... basically, I had murderers in front of me, and there I was thinking that they were simply gardeners or outdoor workers! I promise that next time I will be more vigilant!

   

3. A man wearing a neon pink coffin (It was around Halloween time, so I was a little less worried... )

Anyway, now I await what other impressive sights I will come across on the Bucharest Metro!
