Kempinski Zografski Sofia

... education on the Bulgarian underground.<br><br>Judging by the better table service by the underworked staff, the fat roll of bills, and an article I'd read in The Economist some time ago about Bulgaria and Romania's questionable qualification for EU membership based on their inability to clean up corruption, I quickly drew the reasonable conclusion that these guys were Bulgarian mobsters: baldy being Tony soprano, skinny being his nephew (name?), and stumpy being ...

... was one older guy about 35 who was totally smashed and loud just came in and switched the light on and myself and all the Aussies told him to switch it off as he continued to make a total racket and told us we were all a bunch of mother f****ing pu****ys what a charming fellow! a 35 year old as well very well done old boy very mature! I tried to get back to sleep after but couldn't really he came back in after and ended up falling flat on his ...

... koht oligi kohalikele suunatud korteri stiilis toitlustusasutus. Baar oli köögis, kus saime osta ka koduveini. Meil õnnestus leida vaba tuba ja mõnusalt vesteldes möödus aeg. Kõku soov "candle" baari meid viia ebaõnnestus, sest see oli kinni L Läksime siis ühte kala restosse, mis pakkus väga laia valikut erinevaid kalu. Sellega meie tuur ka lõppes ja poest läbi minnes jõudsime juba enne kümmet tagasi. Mis seal salata - eelmine päev oli meile jälje jätnud ja jõudu nõudnud.

... next day. Now there's probably six Bulgarians walking around with mine and Brittany's identities. But apparently it's the law. Welcome to Eastern Europe. From the outside, our hotel looked pretty nice...3 stars. Heck, the Delta Bessborough is only a four star! It didn't take long for us to realize that there is a totally different ranking standard for hotels in Eastern Europe. Our hotel makes the HoJo look ...

... bare feet is much easier. anyway, we made it to a point at which we all decided there was absolutely nothing more to see, and then had to negotiate our way back down. they laughed at me when i started descending on my bum, but eventually everyone came around - we had a line of us all going down the side of the mountain on our ***** - must have looked pretty ridiculous, but it was SO steep. when we got down we were completely covered in ...

... to a pretty damnable race. It was funny - stereotype or not, he was getting more Irish by the drink. Also, we didn't really pick up on it at the time, but we agree in retrospect that Bryan the American was starting to show signs that he was a little naive - We were talking about the South Park episode on Alcohol Anonomous being a religious cult, and his defence was that you didn't have to believe in God, it was just whatever higher power you look to ...

From Istanbul I took a night bus to Sofia, the capital city of Bulgaria. Hanging out at the Turkey-Bulgaria border crossing at 2:30 in the morning was certainly an interesting experience. The whole process of leaving Turkey and entering Bulgaria took over two hours, two hours that I will likely never forget. Our bus driver was giving all the instructions in Bulgarian, so of course I couldn't understand a word of what was going on and just had to follow the rest of the bus ...
