Sunday, 11/10. Rain. Wind. The road to Constanta from Bucharest is incredibly straight and boringly regular. Speed limit (for cars) is 80MPH. Huge farmland.

The ship is docked at a commercial pier, sandwiched between a shipyard and naval base. Lunch was rather simple. The stateroom is somewhat smaller than I remember, but only one unpacking for hte next 14 days! Heaven.

Our city walkabout was fairly short and not riveting. But it was okay. Only rained a little. Intense wind, which actually moves the ship about.

Dinner was better than lunch. As usual, the menu is very flexible. Request for fries rather than polenta is accepted without hesitation. After realizing that the bar prices were substantially higher than expected, we bought the drinks package.
