Day 49
 |
| St. Alexander Nevsky Bulgarian Orthodox Cathedral. Currently the largest in the Balkans until Belgrade finish building their new one. Apparently, size is important here. |
I've had an enjoyable guided tour of Sofia this morning. I'm leaving tomorrow morning, a day earlier than planned but I just want to get going again. It's 633km to Istanbul with 5,300m of climb. The forecast says it will be cold and dry with a strong NW tailwind. Cool! (this word is used a lot in hostels)
I've made some great friends here, especially Carolina and Alfredo from Costa Rica and Miguel from Portugal.........all with amazing travel stories to tell.
I will be in Plovdiv on Saturday night and Istanbul on Thursday 28 Mar............ if my back holds up : /
Hey Mike, it is a pity we did not wake up early enough to say good bye to you.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe travel, and have fun!
