"Their trees are strong, my Lord. Their roots go down deep."

Timisoara is the first big Romanian city as one enters from the West and also the birthplace of the Romanian revolution against the communists. The story behind the revolution--beginning with 30 members of a small Reformed church standing guard around their pastor's home as he was sentenced to exile--and the cost to anyone who resisted the political norms imposed by the regime is worth taking the time to understand. 

Walking the through the city, we loved the street art on this wall, especially the first progression.
