Walking Across the Danube Friendship Bridge - Cheapest Way From Ruse, Bulgaria to Romania

What an amazing way to enter a new country... Crossing the mighty Danube river by walking across the friendship bridge! This is how we travelled from Bulgaria to Romania, and it was exhilarating!
We had wanted to travel from Ruse, Bulgaria to Bucharest in Romania. The only option by bus during the daytime was with a local company that was charging over the odds to take us across the bridge. The price to Bucharest from Giurgiu, on the Romanian side was considerably cheaper.
So, up for an adventure and always keen to save $10, we decided to hike across the Danube bridge instead. It was brilliant way to enter Romania!
We could not find much recent information online about the journey, whether it was possible or not even to walk across, so we thought we'd make a video to show others how it can be done.
