Diliana had organized a trip to ex-capital cities in Bulgaria. At first we visited Pliska. We saw beautiful ruins of basilica. They are currently reconstructing it and it looks fancy, I can only imagine how the original building looked like. At some point Quirino climbed up the walls and after a second other guys followed him. It is like a domino effect. Then we visited another ruins and a museum near by. One part of that was more like open-air museum. Then we continued our trip to Madara. We climbed up the stairs to see a rock. It wasn't nothing special and I have no idea why we even went there. At least there was a good souvenir kiosk. The way up to the wall was easy but somehow Marat and Giuseppe got lost up there. We waited for them for nothing, like, how you can get lost on this kind of site 🤔 Then we went to another place called Veliki Preslav museum, we watched a movie about the city and it looked really interesting place. We also had a rare opportunity to see golden treasure usually behind locked doors 😝 Then we visited another place in ruins. There lived thousands years ago high civilization, they even had water pipes. I loved the place between forest and mountains, relaxing area.
Then we divided into two groups. One group went back to Sveshtari with professor. With buses we drove to Shumen. I had already visited the city when we hitchhiked to Greece, but now we had an opportunity to discover more the main street of the city. Shumen looked pretty much the same to other cities in Bulgaria. Because we had limited time we found a fast-food place with Heleri, Anna and Mustafa, a Turkish one by the way. We visited Billa shop with Heleri and that was kind of it, we had no more time to discover something else. I was in the same bus with Spanish guys, during that time we all had experienced that if they are sitting next to each other there is not even a minute of silence. So, I changed the situation sitting nex to Antonio or Hutman to separate Mommo from the group 😂 We were almost back in Sveshtari, when Diliana remembered that Ast have a birthday tomorrow and we need a cake to celebrate it. It was again Italians time to shine and to prepare a tiramisu. So, we drove back to Razgrad big supermarket. I loved it. Since then I had only visited quite small shops, Billa was the biggest one so far. It was good to walk around a shop and discover all the goods. So much space and bigger variety than usual. I bought pudding from there just because the information was written in Estonian on it. Those small things really matter if you are far from home and if you are Estonian. When we got almost proper ingredients for the cake we tried to choose a gift for Ast, but it was too complicated and we bought sparkling wine to celebrate this important event. Fun fact is that in the evening when we celebrated birthday we couldn't drink the sparkling wine because someone decided to but it in the freezer, so it was frozen like water 🤣
