Day 3




On Thursday in the morning, when we were in the Pirin mountain, we couldn`t go to the top like we were intending to do early in the morning because of the rain. Then we wake up later and went walk around the mountains. Was fantastic, we had breakfast around the mountains looking the nature and sharing some laughing … good and unforgettable moment. Is amazing the view inside the mountains is magic. About 2pm our bus arrived to pick us up to take us to the train station when we will take the train to go to Plovid.

We spent the whole afternoon in the train having fun still arrive in Plovid. When we arrive here was something like 9pm and was very very hot. I asked Rumy about it, and she said me that is because Plovid is in a valley between the mountains because of it is hotter here than in the others cities in Bulgary. We took a bus and arrived in Rumy`s apartment. Here is amazing, we came to the heel to the sky again. This is the best way the describe how we are happy here and definitely don`t wanna move anymore J There is kitchen, air conditioning, beautiful bathroom, washing machine, comfortable beds, everything we need but better. We met Rumy`s grandparents in our first night here, they are amazing, very sweet and gentle with us. They live in the same build that we are living here, and everyday we go there to have our meals like dinner and breakfast. Is our chance to be healthy here, we ate greats foods everyday. I don`t know how describe it, we really are in the paradise here. And we try to reattribute all the kindness they have with us make them laughing all the time. Rsrs I bring with me my dictionary English to Bulgary and I try sometimes to say some words in Bulgary , and this is the most special skill of our team : WE LAUGH ALL THE TIME, rsrs. Did you get the point? Rsrs – This was our first night here

Today we wake up and went to eat a traditional Bulgary`s food called Banitsa that Rumy`s grandmother cooked for us. Is a kind of bread with white cheese, so nice. And we ate it with yogurt, tea and some watermelons. Every meal we have here, we always come back to our room so full because we ate a lot. As mom is the same anywhere, grandmothers are the same. Always love to cook for us and try to make us fat, rsrs. They are so gentle.

In the afternoon we went to explore Plovdiv. We walked and visit famous places like Regional History Museum Plovdiv, Turkey church, Ancient Roman Theatre and two orthodox christian churches. Plovid is so beautiful, the architecture of the buildings are so Nice, the streets here are very interesetring, is clean, and there aren`t a lot of dogs like there are in Sofia here they have cats in the streets (is better than big and hungry dogs). Is a nice city, I`m really liking a lot here. This is my favorite city that I have been here in Bulgary. The most special moment of our day was when we were in the roman theatre and started to rain. Me, Rumy and Muricio went under the rain and had fun. Very nice I will never forget it. Rumy and everybody here are so special for me, I`m really very fine here. I`m loving this trip …
