Hi Mircea
Yes Romania is a nice place too for observing but the Austria-Hungarian site
is a prime point too and I am interested in these countries ) my father came
from Austria. I have an eclipse website and have eclipse links so if someday
you find that website let me know and I will have a look. 
I will be going to Austria- Hungary on a trip to see the Perseids and the
eclipse and will be a host on the trip. Those who have similar interests can
contact me.

Why just visit only Austria or Hungary for the eclipse?

Why don't you came to Romania, where the people are just as warm as the
Hungarians or Austrians? In Romania the best spots are Timisoara or
Bucuresti. Timisoara is near hungarian border. I know a link to a romanian
Web site where you can see the map of Romania and the best places to see
the solar eclipse. If you want this link tell me and i will give it to
you. (now i forgot the link and i have to search for it).

Mircea.
