• Day 9. Yah soo to Greece xxx

    Yesterday in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    Day 9. This morning we had a walking tour of Skopje, our last stop in Macedonia. This is where Mother Theresa was born although she left when she was 18 and came back only twice, she never got to she her mum and sister again, they had both died.
    The site of her house has a memorial now, it was not rebuilt after the last earthquake in 1963, and about 80% of the city was destroyed leaving thousands homeless.
    I must say I was quite impressed..it's quite funny with all it's monuments, and it's something of a joke here.
    After that, we said farewell as myself and an Australian couple John and Elizabeth headed off to Greece and the rest back to Bulgaria to either go home or start another journey somewhere else.
    We arrived in Thessaloniki just gone 3 and our guide took us on a walk to a gyros place where the size of the gyros was incredible, the pork inside it was delicious!
    Then I came back for a rest for a couple of hours before heading out to catch the sunset as our guide said it would be gorgeous.
    He wasn't wrong! Beautiful! It was really crowded in town, also I bought a large cake on the way back here lol.
    Tmw we form a group with people from Hong Kong who are arriving from touring the Greek islands xx
