Brasov

Following breakfast it was time to begin our return journey. We stopped along the way for a short visit to explore the city of Braşov. One final stop at a service station provided several new plants including the vibrant blue Italian Bugloss Anchusa azurea alongside Bur Forget-me-not Lappula squarrosa, Sulphur Cinquefoil Potentilla recta and Dense-flowered Mullein Verbascum densiflorum . A Skylark rose high into the air in his song flight, whilst Crested Larks patrolled the car park, and several smart-looking Black-headed Yellow Wagtails moved through the fields. It was then just a short drive back to the airport, where we said goodbye to Mircea before making our onward journey back to London.
