Romania - Village Life in Maramures and a day on the Mocanita

Watch this, because this is going to be inevitable. You can get on a horse, you can get on a bike. Here we go, I'm going, bye! I'll let go of one hand. These roofs can be lifted up. It's very clever. There are holes in the supports. And I suppose you put a peg in. Oh yes, there's the peg. And in the middle of all this we have a stork. Where is he? There. We've had a delivery of food, I think. A lot of interest up there. Hiya. That's the old crib. You're not coming outside today? This is Vojkita, and she has been a long way up the mountain to pick all these blueberries. That's hard work. And how much does it cost? The car? Where's the car? The car is over there, it's a holiday. At my home, in the attic, I have ten sewing machines. Do you? Do you collect? No, I collect and I work, I'm a leather craftsman. Incredible. Right on the top of a hill, beans. It's a honey factory. More beans. And I can see shepherds way over there on the hill. Oh, delicious. Thank you. Come on. Bellows. They're huge. This is for oxen. Oxen. It is for oxen. I saw that in France many years ago. Yeah, because the oxen have to be taking the weight. They cannot stay in three legs. Do you still shoe oxen here? Hello. She's cycling and carrying a scythe. All this is being picked out of the hay because it's poisonous for the cows. It's not poisonous. It's not poisonous? It's not poisonous. So why do you take it out? They don't like it. OK, it's not poisonous, the cows just don't like it. Are you from the United States? No, we're from England. England? We really like it, yes, it's beautiful. Also, England is a very beautiful land. It is beautiful, but yours is more precious, is more beautiful. You have so many wildflowers in your hay, we don't. No? No, because they spray. Oh, that was one hell of a climb. I think we've been derailed. He's taken his shirt off, we've got a problem. It looks like a very large pair of duck's feet. Oh God, it's sunk down again. Is it the automatic one? Yes, it is. We've lost a wagon! We've lost three wagons! How many wagons did you lose? Three. The one with the kids. Who has kids? He has kids. He got hit in the hand, he pulled them until he got sick. Who got sick? Babi, don't do it. Babi, with the little feathers. Take it. Babi, don't do it. Is it closed? It's closed, yes. Do you want more? No, that's it. This is just the best holiday ever! This is the march of Japanese knotweed. We've seen an awful lot of it along here this morning. That was a long climb. But we're nearly up there. Hello! Very good. You speak English? Going home from work. That's the hat work. The men were on my left in the main part of the church and the women had to wait, had to pray I suppose, or wait in here. Only on Facebook!
