Sharing a photo of this liquid boy to brighten your day. I met an exceptionally pretty cat today but she refused to pose. Maybe next time 🙂

The Peloton
The cyclists of the Giro flew past me today. It was a great experience with tens of thousands of people everywhere.
The leading group:
And the peloton, I think the winner is the guy in violet jersey, 4th from the right.
Steps count reached 26000. First time I reach that number within the city. Wasn’t easy to find a spot on the first line and fulfill my blogging duties 🙂
Giro Day 3
I visited the place of the final sprint and the 7km mark, both by foot, as the main boulevard is closed. This means I did 19500 steps, and the peloton isn’t even here yet. Little one walked with me to the 7th kilometer and got himself a rubber band ball.
From left to right:
- Sky Fort and Capital Fort – the two tallest buildings in Sofia with the 7km mark. There’s a scene nearby and a cat exhibition.
- The yellow pavement. This slippery surface has been selected by the organizers for the final sprint.
- A truck with an Italian boss and a bunch of strong Bulgarian kids, moving the fences.
- Horse’s back.
- The final, with the Parliament building and the Academy of science.
- Runners in pink clothes and some mobile memorabilia shops.
Giro d’Italia Coming to Sofia
The third stage of the Giro ends in Sofia tomorrow. The stage is already set, there are various events today and tomorrow, and the square is full of people. It’s a great honor for us to have one of the biggest cycling tours visit our country. I’ll try seeing the peloton, which is supposed to ride by my neighborhood in the late afternoon tomorrow.
Sofia is not a very cycling-friendly city but I hope events like this help popularize the sport. Cycling isn’t as good as walking 😀 but still far better than cars.
Siege
The Jay has been staring at me the whole day. He’s also eating the stirofoam insulation. He puffs up his head before attacking the window.
