Respect

24. Июль [месяц] 2008 | en

The monastary was well worth a visit, and the camping again was fantastic. But the real story lies in Ed´s abilities to open a wine bottle, without an opener, AND not by pushing the cork in, but plying it up and out.

The man has my respect. And I do so like Bulgarian wine.

You know what it is like to perpetually smell like burnt gasoline, or dirt under your fingernails from tires that refuse to keep their proper shape and pressure. Flies in your face, either too hot or too cold, but you refuse to submit to that fate of

i loved the location of rila monestary….deep green valley, lots of streams coalescing into a cascading river over boulders of granite…..and the trees…soaring evergreen….great camping spot and it actually stopped raining!!!!....the riding thru the valley was spectacular…nice visit at the monestary…..fake cappacinos mixed with an essresso hit the spot…the waiter thought we were nuts…but he actually caught on to our caffine addiction and brought double shot espresso on our final order…nice!!!!

Kloster bei Rila

24. Июль [месяц] 2008 | de

Heute haben wir das Kloster bei Rila besucht. Es liegt in einem schönen Bergtal. Eine kleine Bergstraße mit unendlichen Kurven windet sich zum Kloster hoch.

Oberhalb des Klosters haben wir ein schönes Plätzchen zum Zelten gefunden. Ein Bach rauscht am Lagerplatz vorbei auf dem Sherrie ihre Runden dreht um mit dem Motorrad vertraut zu werden. Edd bereitet das Essen vor während ich mich um das Feuer kümmere. Welch ein Leben :-)
