The Schmeiser is gone

The monument of the soviet army in Sofia lost its gun. The sculpture is too large and it looks like it will be chopped to pieces rather than removed all at once.

I saw no pro-Russian protesters, which also surprised me. There were statements for the eternal defense of the monument. In the end, it looks like nobody cared enough to stay overnight in the cold for this gigantic gun to remain menacing over the sky.

Looking forward to seeing which piece is removed next.

Walking in Sofia

I had an appointment today that was not far from Loven Park. Decided to walk back home by optimizing for forest time.

Empty, birds singing, leaves and branches falling, and engines roaring from the nearby boulevards. A human here and there, not very often. About 4-5km of that.
