On the way to Bansko we drove by this farmer running his disc across sunflower stubble. Sunflower, corn, and wheat are the primary crops in this region. And the fields are HUGE! Seems like you’d go down and back once and have to quit for the day!
I wasn’t able to get the horse that was pulling this cart in the picture. Going too fast.
We stayed at a spa resort in Velingrad that felt like a throwback from the 1970s during Soviet occupation times.

Our luxury deluxe for $116 at the Park Hotel & Spa. A riot!
My trout at the Velingrad spa was delish!!
Nothing like a haircut to learn about the culture! The barber was 15.
Bansko is a popular ski resort town in southern Bulgaria. It’s in the Pirin mountain range. We’ll be here for a couple of nights.
Train through the mountains. I love a train, whether it’s (D)Amtrak or this Bulgarian beauty.
