We are on the way to the Black Sea, but we can no longer do that today. Looking for a place to stay, we come across the unknown town of Veliko Tarnovo. We find a room with a terrace and a beautiful view for a couple who are enthusiastic about motorcycles and who own a beautiful house in the city center. The old town is beautiful, but also brings with it the challenge that it is difficult to get through the narrow streets by car and to find a place to park.

We stroll through the alleys and enjoy a good Bulgarian meal at sunset. We’re tired from the long day and don’t look at much of the city anymore. At least we learn that this city was also the capital in Bulgaria’s eventful history.
