goodbye lunch we warmly by our hosts and helpers in Alba Iulia. Tim is driving the truck safely to Timisoara. 5 hours of highway. Huge truck traffic. My question "where are all the trucks" has answered me no.
All the other trucks roll tours at the orphanage on - all are healthy again! In Timisoara, we get with just the end of the Christmas party in Rudolf-Walther-children's home. Lively atmosphere with many happy children.
All tell of the experiences on the individual tours, a lively exchange of images and impressions.

Then an accident - a truck (not ours) caught through no fault of one car. Fortunately, all of which are uninjured. We have to wait. With horror and body damage, we can proceed.
We roll through the night. Budapest, Vienna, Passau .... Before us 10 trucks that were a week ago loaded with 45,000 Christmas parcels. We have made many children in Romania were very happy. The emergency relief can not safely with a package, but just a bit of joy and connectedness to bring. It develops Much in Romania: infrastructure is built, schools and renovated buildings, companies settle here. To the prosperity of which depends, we have a gift, will take a long time. We
