Chapter 48: Entering Eastern Europe

I arrived in Istanbul at 8:30 Wednesday morning after a restful 12 hour busride from Goreme. Yay for sleeping pills! Unfortunately it was pouring in Europe's largest city (well, I'm told it's Europe's largest city), so the metro/tram/foot journey to Sultanahmet was pretty miserable. Of course the rain stopped as soon as I reached my destination. I booked into the Orient Hostel, and then went out to wander around Istanbul with a cool Canadian guy named Scott who I'd met at Kose. Our first stop...

MULTIPLYING THE BORDERS, CURRIENCIES AND... FISHES

Bulgaria is a bright spot in a sometimes dismal Balkan landscape. Away from the heavily touristed Dalmatian Coast of Croatia, Balkan Europe is an area best known for its senseless internecine squabbles and Yugoslav Communistic past. Like Albania, Bulgaria remains apart from all that, and is something of an enigma from the get-go. Named for the Eastern steppes tribal marauders who invaded the area not long after the Roman Empire's collapse, and straddling a region comprising Greeks, Thracians,...

Time for some new scenery

Alright after 10 days vegging out in Corfu, plus a voyage from hell, we've made it to the capital of Bulgaria... And guess what what we've found consists of many many churches...and really that's about it... some nice parks as well... 2 nights was more than adequate and I got in trouble from our hostel lady for having the heater on in our room...fair enough tell me and I'll turn it off, I was cold...I'm not a fan of getting yelled at when I'm paying money to stay at a place...so don't stay at...

... the distinctive wall lighting was the signature of this club. Satisfied, or at least giving him he benefit of the doubt, we ordered drinks and sat at a table to await the crowd as the music came back on (I'll give you uno, dos, tres, quatro chances to guess which song he started with).<br><br>To be fair, it wasn't long before more people started coming in. 5 more, to be precise - one scrawny kid with 4 girls - who sat at the table next to ours. Sam, and Jo were ...

... main shopping street. Met everyone else for dinner and we went to a traditional themed restaurant. I had a pot of muscles from the Black Sea along with some rice, yogurt and dill wrapped up in vine leaves and covered in a yogurt sauce. So good! Gave the crunchy pumpkin jam a try for desert, way to sweet for me! Walked back to the hotel and that was basically the night done.

Sophia

The capital of Bulgaria, my one reason for coming to visit Bulgaria's largest and I think oldest Monestary. Beautifully set amongst the Rila mountains in spectacular scenery, though all of Bulgaria seems to be covered in such gorgeous surrounds of green lush mountains and gorges.

... blank refuse to wear anything but my thongs at the moment, so i had insisted that i would be absolutely fine hiking the mountains in my thongs. it worked in greece. so we headed off, and it was all fine for a while - we wandered up to another church in the mountains, which had a cave behind it - the story was that if you could fit through the hole at the top of the cave, you were not a sinner. happily, the hole was quite big, so we all ...

How We Ended Up In A Sofia Strip Club Is......

... joined by Paul's friend Bryan the American, who was also a nice, polite chap. We asked them if they fancied joining us for a beer in Sofia, and they had nothing better to do with their time so they joined us. There was also an American girl, but she was getting the night train to Istanbul and only came out for a couple of hours - she was also rather dull so needn't be a main player in this tale. Paul said during our first drink (remember this) that he was ...
