Lesser Garth (Girth) Cave

Monday, 30th April 2012

We knew this cave was going to be a collector’s item even before we started. It was only 250 m long and Brendan thought it would occupy us for entire the day! There were also reports on the web of some rather squeezy bits. It was a good choice in the horrendous wet weather however, …

Sunday Afternoon Jolly

Monday, 30th April 2012

Thursday, 26th April 2012

Since work brought me to Romania for a year I use my weekends to travel around the country whenever the weather permits. Last weekend was my first longer trip and my destination was Brasov / BrassÃ³ / Kronstadt, a beautiful old city on the Southern border of Transylvania.
