The Red Lake – Bobsleigh Track

 This is my second day in the Red Lake region, and all I have to say is... I love the Székely people and their lifestyle! Some people might tell you that they are just Hungarians, but they are completely different. They are littery the 180° of Hungarians!

Anyways, I started my day by waking up and going to the kitchen from the pension I'm staying at. The food was really good compared to other places I stayed at in the past, and the staff is really friendly. After I ate the food, I got to the bobsleigh track from the Red Lake. It is approximately 950 meters bobsleigh track, it isn't long but it gets the job done. It was so nice of the staff there for letting me film the entire track with my Insta360, also I was thinking of putting the whole track on Street View. Which I'll 100% do!

After I used the 3 out of 5 rounds, I've decided to go to Cheile Bicazului (English: The Bicaz Gorges). There I also used my Insta360 to film a bit of the route!

After that I was pretty hungry, so I stopped at a mini restaurant at the side of the road. The food was as mid as it could get, but at least it satisfied my hunger. On the road, I also saw some shops, but because the parking situation wasn't the best, I walked until there! It was like a mini adventure, trying not to get hit by a car and seeing beautiful scenery.

The Ceaușescu mug.

Once I got to the shops I saw everything from the weirdest things to the coolest things to ever exist. Like this little mug with Ceaușescu splattered on it, which I end up buying. Then I walked all the way back to the car, to get back to the Red Lake.

As I arrived at the Red Lake there was a walk path right by the lake's edge, on which I walked for a good while. As I walked, I saw a little balcony with a view of the lake. I took some pictures and then went to a restaurant to drink something because I was really thirsty.

But first, I explored the area by the lake and found some ducks. After visiting the ducks, I walked to the restaurant, and I ended up ordering an ice cream too besides water. You know, just to end the day nicely!

Then I got back to the pension and played some Rummy, because outside there was a thunderstorm.

Once the storm ended I walked outside and ended up seeing a fox just roaming around the pension. Could this be a sign? Probably!
