The guy on the commuter bike wasn't supposed to be there, but I'm glad he got in the frame. The shot looks better with him there. Stay safe, bike guy!

It's a 2-3 hour drive from Bran Castle. And just to be the insufferable pedant that I am, I'll have to inform you that while Bran Castle is the castle that Bram Stoker described in his novel "Dracula", the real Vlad the Impaler never resided there. Vlad ruled over Wallachia, not Transylvania. He may have been imprisoned there for a short time, though.
