Cycling Touring

Along Iskar River. In the Danube plain.

Although all night in the surrounding fields howling jackals I slept well until late. Hooked saddlebags on bike when on the road began to appear people walked to gardens around. I had no water so unwashed and still sleepy headed to Tsarevets. No more than 50-100 meters from where I

Cycling Touring

Along Iskar River. In Iskar gorge
