Bulgarian Pit Stop

 Europe » Bulgaria » West » Sofia
Not a whole lot going on in Sofia. The place is actually kind of boring, though there are a few things to see. Perfect for a pit stop, unless you're there on a bachelor party (I saw a few of those), or on somebody's birthday (some of the guys I met later on had that) as the place is cheap with good looking girls. Tuesday, May 13th: Not a whole lot of sleep on the train this morning, as I kept on not wanting to miss my stop in Sofia. It was nice, though, having the sleeper cabin all to myself.

Bulgaria

 Europe » Bulgaria
After the ANZAC day tour we jumped on a 19 day Top Deck (like Contiki but better) camping trip through eastern europe - destination: London. First stop was Bulgaria....back in time to the 1960's at least. The most stunning change was the difference in the roads. On the Turkey side of the border there was a 6 lane motorway, go through the border (took about an hour) and you have a dicky two lane track (barely sealed) leading into Bulgaria. You can't get much further east than here and stay in europe...so things are a little different. The most amazing thing [View Full Entry]

Plovdiv

 Europe » Bulgaria » South » Plovdiv
The first true Eastern European stop on my trip, beautiful Plovdiv, home of the best street kebabs in the world. And I don't feel that comment is an exaggeration - wait until you try them! Tania, Emma and I have had a great time here. The crossing to Bulgaria was smooth, which was nice, and we arrived in Plovdiv and and found our hostel with little drama. We were staying handily on the main pedestrian street in town. The mall is basically made up of clothes shops, it seems Bulgarians are keen on their fashion. Though their taste in clothing may [View Full Entry]

Long overdue

 Europe » Bulgaria » East » Boyana
It wasn't until a friend contacted me to see if I was OK that i realised it had been 6 wks since last communication. Got 200Lv off car repair as they said that part looked reasonable first time so to save money(700Lv) for this part they sent me out without it. Total cost 500Lv incl service and German maanufactured part .Now going superbly and taking over as workhorse from caravanna with the exception of very large items like matresses and suite for lounge at 24. Hustle is on to get basics in place for visit of Lee and fam and Sam [View Full Entry]

Tato oblast se vyznacuje a hlavne je vyhledavana pro svou urodnou pudu. Vysoke mnozstvi slunecniho svitu, tak dava prostor k pestovani vinne revy a nasledneho staceni silneho cerveneho moku :o)!
Je parné bulharské odpoledne. Právě jsme projeli Sofií. Po pravé straně za sebou necháváme kopce pohoří Vitoša - místo víkendové rekreace mnoha Sofijčanů. Za pár kilometrů u jsou vidět vrcholy nejvyššího balkánského pohoří Rily i s její majestátní Musalou. My však míříme dál na jih po silnici spojující bulharské vnitrozemí s řeckým pobřeím. Po pravé straně se nám podél cesty poklidně klikatí řeka Struma na své cestě do Egejského moře a po levé ruce začínají vykukovat vrcholky Národního parku Pirin, jeho nejjinější cíp je naším dnešním cílem. Rádi bychom strávili dva dny v okolí městečka Melnik a ochutnali tak jedno z [View Full Entry]

Mikkel and I are headed for Turkey!! After everything that went on last night, I called him at 7 to make sure he was up in time to meet me at the train station at 8:30. He said it was a really good thing I did, otherwise he would have slept right through his alarm. He was very somber and groggy when I met him around 20 to 9, so I gave him a hard time about his hangover, but then told him I’d watch his stuff if he wanted to go find some greasy food (Fornetti) to try to [View Full Entry]

More upsets

 Europe » Bulgaria » East » Boyana
Just as I thought things had settled well I found that my expensive clutch had started to slip already - as a result i am having to loose the car for 2 days while it is sorted. Yesterday went to garage with meta and daughter for support re unacceptability and in 2 hours when I go back today to leave it I have the unenviable prospect of trying to get dogmatic re free repair.They have already started to make noises about running on 4 wheel driving but the clutch should be competent to cover this eventuality or else not much point [View Full Entry]

With the houses and myself on mend I belatedly turned my attention to Bottie,made especially important at the first hint of pungent smell from flowers on porch!! He has got himself linked with the other look alike female (M's) and I am just hoping that it's at the just good friends stage or it will be like locking the stable door----!!Anyway I have just come from the vet's in Dobrich and I will collect him tomorrow.He is also getting wormed and when we go back for his stiches to come out he will get his multiple injection for usual problems and [View Full Entry]

Survivng my 1st winter!!

 Europe » Bulgaria » East » Boyana
So to continue.As you know the winter weather had arrived in style on my return thus cramping my actions to a degree.However now,although some roads still have snow verges, most of the land is clear.I just have 2 small pockets remaining at boyana - both houses. There is a minor trickle emanating from groundfloor new shower tap installation that I intend to get fixed and No 24 had to have a new water meter as the glass had cracked.Unfortunately the taps either side are too old to close properly and so this is another thing requiring fixing. With the addition of [View Full Entry]
