We couldn’t do a hike today, so we went on a 2h city walk. Who could’ve imagined the prettiest flowers would be in some bush right outside of the city.
Bees and Milk Thistle

Hyacinth
This is the same flower featured a few days ago, surrounded by blue blossoms. All the blue blossoms are hiding from the fresh snow, if this can be called snow.
Find the cat
I did an evening walk today, trying to catch up after several days under the goal of 10k steps/day. I visited Iztok, a popular and calm neighborhood with good sidewalks. Took exactly one photo, and it has a cat.
I find it difficult to meet my 10k steps goal this year.
Maintenance Is Important
All things in life have a natural tendency to decay over time.
The building in the photo was once a military headquarters but is now managed by various branches of the government. Different management led to different fate.
The Footbridge
One of the two pedestrian overpasses in my neighborhood got renovated and reopened. Here’s how it looked in the beginning of January and today.
We had no easy access to the park for 6 weeks, which affected the number of steps I make.
I don’t think the overpasses are practical. They are inaccessible and difficult to maintain. The elevators get used as toilets. I think a real solution would be a traffic light and slowing down the traffic on the main boulevard (Tsarigradsko Shose). It’s too noisy and dirty as is, it’s not just that it cuts Mladost in half and the wrong half is miserable despite the park.
Speaking of the park, I finally visited it today. The temperature was -10° C. Some very cold 5k steps.
