Where I stayed

Flag of Bulgaria  ,
Monday, September 8, 2008

Took an overnight train from Istanbul to Sofia, Bulgaria. The trip took 14 hours and at 3am all the passengers were herded off the train and forced to sit outside in the middle of nowhere for two hours while Turkish customs officials processed passports. Arrived in Sofia and the first hostel I checked was full. The next hostel I checked was called art hostel. There were some very cool people that worked there and they even offered me a job but it was not the cleanest hostile--the bedbugs were biting. After walking around Sofia for a day, I decided it was time to move on to the Black Sea coast while the weather was still nice. So I boarded a train to Varna, Bulgaria at 1:15 after being in Sofia for about 25 hours.

Where are you headed?
Jordan,
Where are you going now? It won't be long until its time to come home.
Just finished reading about Turkey and Bulgaria. What an adventure.
This Saturday Mitch and I head to Fresno to watch my Badger Football Team take on Fresno State. I'm much relieved that you won't be there as both teams have the exact same colors! Only kidding-xoxo
Love you-Jdad

Where are You?
Jordy,
I haven't heard from you. I hope that you are doing well and haven't fallen into one of those big beer barrels at October Fest in Munich.
When you get a chance update your travel blog- I would love to see some photos of you at the October Fest, Paris, London, and Ireland!
Love you,
J dad
