A bright but chilly Saturday morning in Bucharest for Romania National Day. The parade down past the Arc de Triumf drew a big crowd, arriving shortly after 10 it was already very busy. I found a spot with the crowd only two deep a little up the road to get some pictures and benefitted after the event as the military vehicles came round and through the Arc de Triumf again for the video opportunity!
The flags with the eagles all looked very Napoleaonic and the march past included the military services and the various arms of the police and fire brigades.
Sunday was equally bright and chilly for a wander around the centre of Bucharest. Temperature on a clear day is down to 2/3 but the wind chill can be quite a shock especially if you aren't standing in the sunshine.
