Constanta, Romania

Leaving Russia we sailed for about 36 hours to get to Constantia, Romania.  Constantia is where the Danube River enters the Black Sea, so we took a boat ride through the delta area the first day we were there.  The second day, we did sight seeing around Ovidius Square in the old Roman part of the city, visited the architectural museum, and then went to a local winery to taste some Romanian wines.  The Romanians seem to like sweeter wines, that are on the lighter side.  Most of Romania is Roman Catholic with large populations of Orthodox Christians and Muslims.  Some snap shots of Romania are below:
