Now we just got to figure out how to get to our Airbnb
we downloaded a taxi app but it's not working
we can't figure out how to put a credit card into the app either because we
can't receive a text message... the funs of travel!
Hey you guys! thanks for joining us on another journey
today we're on a train ride from Romania to Bulgaria
oh, and it's an experience. this is April and i'm Wayne. if you're new to the
channel hit, that subscribe button we do a video every Thursday.
So sit back, relax and enjoy the journey!
travel tip for you, when you rent the car i always suggest taking your cell phone
out or your camera, record the actual
walk-through of the car before and after when you return the car. this is us
returning our three dollar a day rental car
if you guys are interested how we get our rental car so cheap, there's a card
above to our Cancun three dollar rental car
where we show you step by step and click by click how to
get rental cars for dirt cheap.
Out here at Bucharest train station and we're gonna catch a train and take
it to Sofia Bulgaria
kind of excited uh this is a really old train station though this thing
looks like it's straight out of the uh Soviet Union from a long time ago
It was 36 dollars U.S. for the train fare
per person
and as you can see you can't escape McDonald's, they're everywhere
another travel tip for you, there is no dining car
on any of the legs of this train ride. we got some food at the train station in
Bucharest. you're definitely not going to go hungry there. there is plenty to
choose from, from fast food McDonald's all the way to
great traditional Romanian pastries and
sandwiches. travel tip for you, from our experience
it seems that you cannot buy train tickets from
Bucharest Romania to Sofia Bulgaria online. we had to go to the
actual train station and buy them in person.
what you doing April? walking to the train, Wayne. we're going to another country-- I've
never been on a train. Oh, a virgin experience. Yet another...Wayne Berg
have you ever been on a train before? yeah
where to? London to Paris now that's cool because that's under the water.
right, yeah English Channel. and then uh Ontario to uh
what's the little town i went to in Canada?
card above to the uh to the Le Boat
Rideau Canal?
just got off the train at Smith Falls Canada
we're gonna go catch us a Uber to our boat
this is our boat for the week we're here at Le Boat
we've rented this uh yacht we're going to be taking it through the
lock system all through Canada. it's a 44 foot private yacht it's gonna
be fun. but i don't remember the name of the
town well you went to several... Kingston
Lee's Ferry
i don't know. we rented a car... yeah
all i'm saying is I've never been on a train like this
i've been on trains, you know a train ride,
but this is like a train to a destination--like the Roaring Railroad
right, card above for that you might be wondering, we're at the
Roaring Railroad in California
that's a train ride and that's cool, but i'm talking a train
to a destination. right--i mean besides like the front runner
I've never-- i don't think i, maybe i rode the train as a kid but i
don't think so. it's a small train
so the train just made a stop not sure where we're at--at the border, obviously
oh is this the border? yeah we're probably into the border into Bulgaria
yeah. then a police officer came on and
grabbed our passports and then walked off the train i hope we
get them back. i'm sure we will. i've never had anybody
just take my passport
it's because you've never ridden a train into a country before
Mm-hmm, into France. well
not like this though you just went into France. this is crossing
all is well, we got our passports back now we're going to Bulgaria. you're so paranoid.
hey--paranoid--train station that we're at you know i've seen too many spy movies
or Romanian prison
no paranoid there's a difference. can't give a s*@# about being paranoid.
we made it to Bulgaria. we're trying to find our other train...
this is crazy...
i feel like i've gone back in time. we think this is our train to Sofia.
okay so we're on the train to Sofia now. it is definitely old school huh
Sofia
so it looks like we've got our own travel car at this point
that could uh change but uh
it's uh definitely uh different that's for sure. what do you think about
your first class seating?
I feel like I'm in some sort of a Communist era film
well the girl on the platform said it was a she believes they were a
Russian-made trains
what's up choo choo train lady? what you thinking about your choo choo train
ride?
it's interesting. we have gone back in time... yeah
it's almost like a
mellow roller coaster, being on the train. mellow roller coaster. maybe it's more
this way because we haven't hit the city yet you're
definitely out here in the country that's for sure.
well we're gonna drive around the countryside. some of it
okay i don't know if you can tell but when you go to the bathroom on a
train, it obviously goes underneath because
there's light coming from the toilet
it's definitely an interesting toilet
you go to the bathroom--yeah--it goes underneath the train
into the outer--you can see light from the toilet--oh my god
you should go take a deuce
is it worse than the other? no because it doesn't stink, it's just not very fancy. yeah
you said that was just old but that was more than just old, that was like grime and--
yeah that was pretty wretched. yeah but this one
has no black tank whatsoever it just goes straight down
to the tracks. wow
film yourself peeing?
i was about to but i didn't. i figured ah it's YouTube, they don't want to see all that
but i did stick this camera down the toilet to show the light. Gross!
does it need to be disinfected? no i didn't stick it in the toilet
i just stuck it you know--aimed it down--oh
they always say smash that subscribe button. smash it, smash smash that subscribe
button. and don't forget--hit the bell so you'll be notified
is that your bad British accent?
--of our future videos
it's just some random accent i am talking on the spur of the moment
--on the fly. that was quite the adventure!
yeah? adventure in toileting? um yeah, i thought it was hard to pee on an
airplane like, i was going up and down and side to side
like trying to--trying to not touch the walls i'm like
trying to--trying to leverage myself with my
feet and my--like how?--like this. like that? i'm
like trying to squat and not touch anything and i'm
bouncing around and going like this. that's funny
yeah that was quite a workout.
choo choo train goofiness. thank god for antibacterial wipes,
can i just say. if you don't know this about April, she's got cooties
i don't have cooties. oh i mean you got the
paranoia of cooties. i am OCD. i have OCD tendencies
so i'm pretty proud of myself for what i have endured and can endure.
i may cry in the moment but after the fact...
We made it to Sofia Bulgaria now we just got to figure out how to get
to our Airbnb
we downloaded a taxi app but it's not working
we can't figure out how to put a credit card into the app either because we
can't receive a text message... the funs of travel!
give us an update April. i'm sleepy
it feels like we've gone a lot farther than we did.
i guess with my knowledge of the English language and then my knowledge of--
albeit small--of other languages, i can get root words
from what I've learned and... their alphabet
it's left me feeling like, whoa! they're alphabet is so--
it doesn't make any sense. like you look at the words for Bulgarian Railway
Network and it looks nothing like it. which we
--it's weird-- we got the taxi app working we think.
one of them. one of the apps. the vehicle has been dispatched
okey-dokey a female 776. her name is 776?
no, they say it's important to know the number
so that you can--you're getting the right person--get you in the right car
yeah because of the scams--you're not being scammed, yeah. yeah we've been warned that the
taxi scams are pretty big here. look at this truck
this thing is cool
this is her. what's the number?
what? 776
Hello! Hallo
Look at this! We got a
the penthouse we're on the fifth floor let's see what the bedroom looks like
oh this is cute
how much do we pay for our Airbnb?
ummm... $50
a little more than--well not that much more than what we usually pay but
we had we had to splurge because tomorrow's Christmas--hell yeah--
and we don't think anything's going to be open we don't even have a rental car
yet or anything--we're gonna be hanging out here probably
most of the day. we were originally supposed to be
heading to North Macedonia but we've kind of put that on the back burner
and we're just gonna stay here for a couple days instead and enjoy the
Christmas holiday. We want to thank you guys for watching
our video all the way to the end. if you would, hit that subscribe button,
share it with a friend and, like always, thank you for living life!
and Merry Christmas--yep-- even though this won't be out for several months
