006-008 Cycle Touring Eastern Europe - Part 2 -Bulgaria, Turkey & Cyprus

(Leana) #1

Yuk Camping - Border – 75 kilometres

Bulgaria has diverse terrain, including a coastline along the Black Sea
and a mountainous interior. Once we moved inland, the terrain grew
steep. Since it was August, and thus mid-summer, most days were
sweltering, adding to the challenge. Flies also added to the problem.
They buzzed in hordes around our heads, strangely reminding us of
biking in Ethiopia.


Shortly before reaching the Turkish border, Eddie and I rode into a
small village to get some refreshments but decided to stay.
Unfortunately, the town lacked campsites or accommodations.
However, we were directed to the hospital, which doubled as a
guesthouse.
