Looks like a lake but it’s just a puddle, a memory from the melting snow.

International Spring Book Fair Sofia – 2024
I love the International Book Fair in Sofia. I have a system where I visit the fair multiple times before buying books to get the full experience.
This time I violated the system. Here’s my harvest from Day 1.
Rebecca Yaros, 2x Brandon Sanderson, and 3x game books. 5 out of these 6 books are likely to be 5/5s.
And here’s a photo from the book fair with no books:
The book fair will be open for 10 days until June 2nd.
Central Sofia Market Hall – Halite
Halite is open again, after years of on-and-off. It will be a supermarket again, the purpose I remember as a child. During the communism, we would go there shopping, walk around the empty shelves, and maybe find something useful. Communism wasn’t known for full stores.
The view from the outside hasn’t changed. Perhaps the roof has but otherwise, they pursued authenticity, I think.
It has 2 floors inside – the supermarket and some food-court-museum basement. I liked how it’s made, I think this is the best version of Halite I’ve seen and I hope it stays open.
During my childhood, the building had 2 floors but both were above the ground.

This is a rare sight. Usually looks like this:
I’m not making my 10k steps today.
Art
Someone designed this monument, financed it, got a permit, built it, painted it multiple times with different colors for us to wonder. What is it?
