Back from the Seaside

Hi everyone! I'm now back in sweet, dear, old Sofia. This Wednesday marked the end of the sunny-hot-people-infested-blue-sea-in-Sozopol adventure. There were no more freak firework attacks during our last three days there, but it was still pretty cool. I got to have almost an entire day on my own, and I went shopping, visited a museum, ate at a good restaurant by the sea, and generally had a great time. Now it's time for some photos!

First of all, this is me after I went out in a crazy rain storm, trying to save my car from potential (and actually real) hail.

















This photo of which many would be ashamed is exactly the opposite for me. This is my room in the middle of the greatest cleaning it's ever had.











Can you believe this is the same room? Only 4 1/2 hours after the above situation. The whole cleaning, though, took 2 days and 14 hours.










After those shocking footages, here are some peaceful scenes from the seaside.


1. A Yorkshire terrier which fell asleep on its favorite pair of shoes.












2. A cute doggy enjoying the beach.













3. A view from Sozopol. The near houses are from the old town, and the big houses in the distance are part of the new town.












4. Fig trees are to Sozopol like maple trees are to Canada.












5. Old town scene again. These are remains of ancient baths.











6. To the right, you can see the Southern Fortress wall from VI-XIV centuries. Today the fortress is a museum house. In the distance, the new part of town again.











7. An old house in the sunset.













8. Seagulls. I took this picture while I was eating lunch.












9. Yet another view of Sozopol.














10. The sunset seen from our hotel room.

















11. This is a blurry picture of a seagull. To me it looks as if the seagull is flying over a continent as seen from a sattelite.









Those were some of the pictures I took on our trip. Fact: From over 200 pictures, almost 50% are self-portraits of me (talk about self-centered). I haven't posted any of those.
Returning to Sofia has been ok. I was slightly nervous because I didn't have an internet connection for two whole days (which was devastating for me:) Thankfully, all is back to normal now. I have exactly 18 days left before I leave, and I still have a lot of packing issues to figure out. I'm off to bed or something now. See you soon!
