    Back to Martinovi Baraki

    February 14, 2017 in Bulgaria ⋅ ☀️ -6 °C

    With legs enough for one more run, we returned to Martinovi Baraki as this chair lift always has such a short queue. It was the first time this week that the weather at the bottom of the lift had been as fabulous as it was at the top. This meant the view over the resort and beyond was equally as spectacular as at the top of the mountain. We barely saw a cloud all day.

    After handing in our kit for the day, we headed back to the hotel for a lunch of "traditional long sausage" and "traditional oblong meatball" - not as bad or obscure as it sounds! The pancake and ice cream dessert was a welcome surprise from usual hotel desserts of a cake-shaped mush.

    Breaking all the rules, we swam after lunch to try and stave off muscle ache tomorrow. The pool is very impressive with lovely snowy views outside. Back in the room, after more laughing at the video of Ben wiping out, the idea of work went out the window in favour of a nap before dinner.
