As I said in my previous entry, we went to Nesebar on Saturday. Waking up at about 8 was a bit difficult for me, but even more, I guess, for those who stayed later than me.
Nesebar is an ancient town, in UNESCO heritage, meaning there were bunches of old buildings from Greek/Roman period. The number of churches really surprised me. People that time must have been really religious. I kind of liked the orthodox paintings, because they’re different from what I know from „Catholic“ Europe. The interesting thing about orthodox churches is that they don’t have windows.
On Sunday we set out for our trip to Sliven. The train was a bit worse than I expected, but it was a TRAIN :) Mario and Tobias managed to get a seat with a clean window (and were selling the view for 5 euro :)) in contrast to the others. As in Nesebar, I didn’t expect to be cold, so didn’t take enough clothes with me.
While me and Tsvetan were visiting flats, the others went to see the beauties of Sliven. I was surprised what one can(not) find in Bulgarian apartments. You can have a „cooker“ (it looks more like a microwave) on the balcony or missing heating. To be honest, I didn’t like neither of the ones they offered me :( So now I’m kind of choosing the „best from the worst“. I have decided to cross out living with „baba“, because of lack of privacy (for both sides) and the big (and nice) flat without heating.
The rivals are: 1) A new flat, which is quite small with a view into a concrete yard, but has a new washing machine and all in all looks nice. It is competing with 2) the flat which was offered me by the teachers. It has everything, but I’m not sure about the bathroom, since it’s not in the pictures I got by mail (I didn’t visit this one). Among its advantages belongs: it is bigger and no-one will be offended by my refusal to take it (which I promised about a month ago). Both are the same price.
After these exhausting excursions, we went into the Blue Mountains. I’m not mentioning the pain of getting up, because it was worth it. It was just magnificent. I think I’ll like to go chill out there (not on foot but will take a chair lift ).

On the way back down, everyone (ecxept for me and Tsvetan) decided to run down and they did it. I think they were really crazy, but whatever, nobody got hurt...
Fortunately, in the morning Taco appeared with an old minivan, which was really helpful, because it had already been evening and we would have to wait for 2 hours for a night train. Tobias made a comfortable sleeping place in the car boot and the rest travelled properly, as civilized Europeans :)

It was a nice weekend. Hopefully, the next one, we’ll go to Varna.
