I was there in 1973 for over 3 weeks. Our high school choir was invited by their government for a goodwill ambassador tour. It is a pretty country. Everything they serve you for every meal is covered with a secret sauce that was horrible. It was sour milk and some kind of tomato base poured over the food. I ate a lot of bread.

We climbed almost 2000 stairs up a mountain in transylvania to see dracula's castle (for real), but it was just a wall left standing, I was pissed. The black sea is like swimming in lake michigan, only salty.

My roommate for the tour was bit on the ass by a pig when we were using the outhouse one night when we were staying with the locals. The pig's pen had a lot of gaps on the board between that and the outhouse. The outhouse was just a hole in a board, only about 6 inches above the ground, no hole dug for the waste, it just ran down the hill, through the pig stall. eeewww But her being bit on the ass was hilarious. We woke up the whole village screaming and laughing that night.

We changed planes in Belgrade. Full employment in the communist countries back then had peasants cutting the grass between the runways with hand cycles, no earmuff to protect their hearing from the very noisy aeroflot jets. They had the ugliest stewardesses in the universe in that russian airline. That is what I remember the most.

Oh, and at the time, their currency dollar was called a LAY!!! Dunno what they use now that they aren't communist anymore. I still have some of that old money.
