The Mountain

~ Veselin ~ 9 Comments

The mountain was unwelcoming today for a second time in a row. We did a brief walk on the horizontal path for about 1.5h. The wind tried to blow us away, and the snow was just enough to make our hats wet. Our new 5-euro sunglasses from Decathlon that cover the side of the eye protected us from the wind very well but it was still unusually cold. The type of weather that makes you want to get out of the mountain as quickly as possible.

The happiest moment of the trip was when we boarded bus 66 and the hike was over 🙂

Lentil Soup

I was too quick on my weekly hiking trip to Cherni Vrah today and the beans soup wasn’t ready. There would be beans, kufte, and kebapche 15-20 minutes later. Missed that but I had lentils and chocolate, and it was fine. Life was good.

Appreciating the chance to see the peak one more time.

Bean soup

It’s been awhile 🙂 I post photos of the bean soup that’s sold in the Cherni Vrah shelter as a mark of achievement that I managed to get there one more time.

The mountain was moist, slippery and foggy today. It rained a bit and I even had a chance to walk in hail for about a minute or two. Thankfully, no thunders. Found some berries.
