In search for the graves of the former dictators of the country, I discovered Ghencea Cemetery as a romantic corner of the city with graves overgrown by flowers, monumental statues, and resting places of aviation heroes.
I returned to the grave of Elena and took some pictures of this simple resting place before continuing to the other side of Ghencea Cemetery. I noticed that some of the graves had bluish propellor blades with a Romanian flag painted on top: they are some of the Romanian aviation heroes buried at Ghencea. Apparently, also the pilot who flew the Ceaucescu's to temporary safety from Bucharest in those dark days in December, is buried here. For sure, one of their sons, Nicu, is buried near to the main Chapel. I came across other security staff who saluted me. One of them, however, took out his walkie talkie, and before I knew it, his colleagues, the ones I had met initially, were on the spot. They were starting some nervous, unpleasant discussion with me, and I realized that the wisest thing to do would be to move on and leave the cemetery.
