Curtain fall. Blinding shine. Collective gasp. Gold. Gold. More gold. Impressed chatter. Wooden ceiling. Wooden smell. Warm colors. Frowning statues. Nature painting. Old books. Huge fireplace. Emblazoned heraldry. Romanian kings. Distinctive red. Glass windows. Shine, shine, shine. Venetian mirrors. Jeweled decorations. Clinking crystals. Spiralling stairs. Tiny balconies. Heavy draperies. Gold. Again. Awe. Royal throne. Oriental weaponry. Look, a shisha. Dim corridors. Sudden current. Secret passages? Creaky floors. Dusty carpets. Classicist statues. Greek muscles. Gilded marble. Immaculate walls. Exit. Heavy heart. Sinaia, Romania. Peles palace. Touch of time. Old times. Better times. As always? Or bitter. Just, Time. Imperial stout. Luxurious vanilla. Nostalgic chocolate. Hop Hooligans. Beer to remember. Visit to remember. Memories, dear.
