Great Tour by surprise

Caught the train to Sibiu on a very nice modern train.  The town was quite nice and obviously a lot of construction going on by the influx of EU monies to help the country develop, although they did seem a little disorganized in doing this.  The first day there didn't do to much as we arrived late in the afternoon and most things closed.  Did manage to visit two museums quickly.  The town consists of three nice squares and is fairly easy to get around.  We did end up going out again to some bar, but it was nothing too spectactular to be honest.

The following day, we slept late then headed to some village about 30 minutes away by bus.  We were pleasantly surprised by the local tour guide at the church who gave probably the most interesting tour I have ever seen.  She was quite energetic, had great stories and always put things into a great perspective.
