On the road again, again.

In honor of the Liberation of Bulgaria, we have both Thursday and Friday off. [Liberation from whom; I am not sure: the Turkish, the Germans, The Soviets?]

To take advantage of the four day weekend, we are going to try and participate in an annual Kokori Festival. Again, transportation is reaching epic status. It looks like it will be an hour taxi ride, a 6.5 hour train ride, a 3 hour bus ride, and then we will have to hitch-hike the last part. These are the times you really wish Peace Corps would let us drive cars. I will make sure to take pictures and put them up.

Be well,
Mark
