Parâng Mountain

This is Parâng Mountain which is located in the Southern Carpathians or Transylvanian Alps near Petroşani. I went here a lot of weekends during the winter. It is really amazing to come up here after a busy week. There is a ski lift to ride up which was really cool and also my first time on one. Parângul as the peak is called is 2518 meters high and one of the highest in Romania.

Doesn't this dog look like a muppet?

This is a guy passed out next to a beer bottle. he must be freezing!!

This is the Meteorology Station that I got to stay at. The weather men are friends of friends. It was really nice and fun.

I guess these guys decided to get a tan in the 20 degree weather on their fat bellies, while drinking beer.

I like animals way too much.

This is Vin Fiert, which means hot spiced wine. It is so delicious in the winter. We thought it was funny that they brought it out in a thermos. It didn't last us long since we were all freezing after playing in the snow.
