and as of tomorrow, four countries. Talk about an long ten days that will make. So I will sum things up real quick here:
On Sunday the 20th at 5:30 am, I returned from my trip to Thessaloniki for the half marathon.
On Monday the 21st at 8:20 am, I met my good friend Lauren from WKU, along with a young boy from California, who joined us at the hostel for about 24 hours.
For the next three days I showed Lauren around the city of Sofia, proudly being tour guide in the city that I called home from about August 1st to October 21st.
On Wednesday the 23rd at 11 pm, we boarded a bus for Istanbul, Turkey. Around 5 am we crossed the border, which meant we had to get off the bus and pay a man to put stickers on our passports. Those stickers were our little visas that allowed us to enter the country of Turkey.
On Friday the 25th at 11 pm, we boarded a bus for Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Around 3 am we crossed the border, and received our exit stamps on the visas. Then we crossed into Bulgaria and received our entry stamps back into the country.
On Saturday the 26th at 6 pm, we arrived in Plovdiv, and were driven to our marvelous lodging place - Old Guesthouse Plovdiv.
Yesterday, Sunday the 27th at 1:30 pm, we boarded a bus from Veliko Turnovo, where we met old friend Jimmy around 6 pm yesterday evening.
We have really enjoyed this city, and now we will be heading to Bucharest, Romania during the middle of the day tomorrow.
Over the next few days I will be posting some pictures and stories of the different places we have visited, and will be visiting.
Ciao!
