Run at Herastrau Park
I ran 3.2 miles at Herăstrău Park. It’s conveniently just off a metro stop. It’s a large park with green grounds and lengthy paths surrounding Lake Herăstrău, which is fed by the Colentina River.

Lunch at Caru’ cu bere, a restaurant with Bavarian styling and traditional Romanian food. For dessert, we had papanash, a cream covered donut thing. So good.
