Today we explored Varna. We started by looking for a place to get coffee and a pastry. So far on this trip when I order a large Americano coffee I frequently get the equivalent of a double espresso. So it was quite a surprise and a bit fun when today I ordered a large Americano and when the coffee came it was LARGE! The cup even had two handles!

It definitely feels like Spring is here. We walked through the park on the way back to our hotel and the tulips were starting to bloom.

This afternoon we went for another long walk. This time towards the port.

We stopped for a snack at a restaurant overlooking the port. It was fun to watch the cranes loading grain into a ship and a navy ship coming in. It was also great to sit outside and enjoy the very pleasant weather.



For dinner we went to a nearby Italian restaurant and shared pasta and pizza. It was very good.


In my family, a coffee cup that size is called a coffee bucket. Your reports from this trip have been a welcome visit to a part of Europe I’ve never been to. Thanks for bringing us along through photos and narrative.

A coffee bucket is a perfect description of the cup. I really enjoy imagine you reading the post on your couch. Is Joey nearby?

Joey is sitting on the windowsill, behind the plants, watching the boys across the creek play basketball. It’s a big, blustery day with sunshine, huge puffy clouds, high winds and cold air.
