Ducks, Hanging Hats, and Rust

~ Veselin ~ 14 Comments

My daily walk in Sofia was in rusty areas.

I saw a duck, which is quite uncommon for my neighborhood. We mostly have crows, rooks, magpies, jays and other related crow-ish species. I didn’t even know this mini-river existed, it starts nowhere and ends nowhere. It’s walled by layers of rusty walls. I’m not sure if I can even legally reach it without trespassing some abandoned or poorly maintained industrial lot.

Found some hats along the way.

The orange friend is Pesho, already featured here as Son of a Mother.

The weather was nice and helped me get to 15K steps.

Spring is coming

I’m reducing the steps again, as well as the pull-up attempts. About five joints complain at the moment, including both knees. Hopefully just a temporary glitch in my fitness journey. I’m not skipping exercises, just lowering the intensity.

Meanwhile, flowers are blossoming everywhere, tricked by the warm weather. Spring is the best season in Sofia for people who enjoy walking outside.

Actually, I blogged about this little blue beauty last year as well.
