Yesterday was another cold rainy day here in Sofia. I started the day by going to the Museum of Socialist Art, which seemed like it would be interesting. Plus, it should be warm and dry.
First I had to find the museum. I thought it ... Read more >

Last night, I slept in a hotel, even though I didn't want to.
