Rila Monastery





It actually made the front cover of Lonely Planet for Bulgaria, we had to go and see it. Nearly 3 hours from Sofia - 150 km we take off in a "direct" bus to the Monastery only to be dropped off in the middle of nowhere and told to get another bus. A dusty road to nowhere (with a few donkeys,horses and goats on the side of it) takes us through the mountains
HIdden in Rila Mountains, it's something you have to see!

The paintings on the walls are all done by hand, it's something amazing, such attention to details.

And this is Zach, Clarisse and Me. She was smiling until a waiter told her to come back tomorrow if she wanted some food. She was not impressed and sulked all the way back, oh, what a joy.
