Happily Sidetracked

This morning, we fully intended to go exploring in Veliko Tarnovo. Specifically, we planned to see the ruins of the castle/fort that was in place when this city was the capital of the Medieval Bulgarian kingdom, between the 12th and 14th centuries. But first, we decided to stop by the playground to work out some energy. The next thing we knew, it was lunch time, so we decided to have lunch at a wonderful little place across the street from our apartment, with a fantastic patio and spectacular play area. We lingered there, enjoying the day, until much of the day was behind us. Then, we decided we would prefer a nap to a hike, so back to the apartment we went. This evening, we spontaneously decided to eat out again, because eating out is cheap here, the food is delicious, and we simply can't get enough of this city. We regret nothing. Plans are great, but sometimes the best days are the ones that don't follow the plan. Perhaps, we'll see the ruins tomorrow...or, perhaps not.

Big enough to pump himself
(But small enough to still want to be pushed!)

The whole city goes downhill
(Or uphill, depending on where you are!)

Any restaurant with a bouncy house is a friend of ours

Oh, happy day!

We just cannot get enough of this beautiful city!

Fun night at the Lino Bar and Grill
