Subject: Post: At the morning I started wondering if I should do something about the missing driving license thing. I was trying to call to the police of our hometown for about an hour, without getting anybody to answer, except some waiting music etc.. Fine, thats the way to go, Finnish police..<p>Well, that didnt work. So, I called the embassy of Finland in Bucharest. The lady working in there was really helpful and promised to write me an official paper telling that I do have a driver license and give me their cellphone numbers if I got any problems with the police about the missing drivers license. We took a bus to the embassy, got the paper and now that problem should be sorted out.<p>We had a friend living in Bucharest, Tudor. We have been meeting him a few times while we have been somewhere in Romania, and I sent Tudor a message if he is in Bucharest today. He was, and after having a quick dinner at the hostel we headed back to the city to meet up with him. Tudor took us first to a nice restaurant in a park in the centrum of Bucharest, and after that to a Couchsurfing meeting in a bar on top of the national theatre of Bucharest. Quite familiar place, we have been attending meetings there a few times.<p>There was a lot of people attending the meeting, around 30 I guess. We spent a few hours in there, and then took a taxi to our hostel with Tudor. I just wish they had safety belts in the taxis, because the local taxi drivers are driving like headless apes...<p>We did book our hostel only for one night, and earlier today we had been talking with the hostel owner and he told us its not a good idea to leave Bucharest today towards Transsilvania, because everybody will be going there at friday evening and the roads are totally crowded. The hostel was quite full booked, but he promised that we would get a bed in there, or a mattress somewhere.<p>Obviously he had forgotten to tell that to the receptionist on the nightshift, and the hostel was totally full, no space for a mattress or anything. With one phonecall we managed to get a Couchsurfing host however, a local girl that was attending the meeting promised to host us at her place.<p>They came to the hostel, and we were supposed to follow their car to their place. At some point the car got out of the sight, so we had to manage at our own. She had jumped to our car at the hostel, but she had also just moved to a new apartment and the city is big, so she was not sure of the right route either.. Half an hour of driving around the city, and we got to her place. Time for some sleep again.. And we are still thinking if we should stay in Bucharest or go to the festival in Sibiu tomorrow.
