The hotel was beautiful above the city and we have enjoyed a nice beer on the terrasse and then a opulent meal inside the restaurant.<br><br>The next day was the hard day to dr&#305;ve long hours to Greece and then Turkey. We have only arr&#305;ved at 22:30 in Istanbul. The traffic in Istanbul is challenging as all Turk&#305;sh drivers only know one way --&gt; agressively forward as fast and as ...

... September depending on their size.<br><br>The train route back to Sofia was a nice surprise. We caught the 'fast' train - 7 1/2 hours - and realised after about an hour that we were going to take a different route heading north west and back down to Sofia.

... era and some more has been done more recently. It is really interesting to look at the different styles. The soviet bricks were clearly not attempting in any way to look like the older stones. They often had multiple colors and were usually shiny whereas the newer reconstructions tried to be a bit truer to the ancient fort. At the top of the fort is a small church with really creepy paintings inside. The paintings are reminiscent of crusaders. There were many pictures ...

... By the end of the trip he was Shona's favorite. He moved us to a compartment by ourselves, bought Shona a pillow when she lay down for a nap, and kept us updated on when we needed to depart from the train, what service.

... there was the driver taking me all the way up there from the station. Just as what "Let's East Europe" introduces, the terrace outside has a great panoramic view of the Tsarevets Fortress across the valley and mountains nearby. By the time Andrea, the driver, and I reached the Hostel, it was almost dark. "You are lucky today." Andrea told me, "They have a free barbecue tonight."
