    Interesting, thanks for sharing the details. There are many stone structures here in the States that were made by indigenous people that capture light from the solar system at different milestones.There are some really cool ones in Chaco Canyon from probably 900 AD timeframe.

    They're all around the world from ancient times. What I find interesting here is that many of the Thracian sacred places are build upon even older structures, then a Christian church is built on top of them very often. If not on top, then at a very close location. Must be something at these spots

    I always considered myself a history buff but never heard of the Varna Necropolis until just recently, oldest civilization found in Europe, rocks all their theories of Mesopotamia being the cradle, lots to learn from your neighborhoods history.

    Also the oldest golden treasure in the world was found there. The Balkans are ancient.

    Snowy hike, from a snowy peak to a snowy monastery and back. Then awesome tripe soup.

    Thank you! I don't have night shifts anymore, so many more adventures will be documented :) Having a full weekend is a treasure.

    Thanks guys! Next week I plan to go to the top of a little peak, just above this location. Some hikers went down from there and told me the that the goats climbed it too.

    The peak got climbed today! The weather was awesome, sunny and warm - 15 C.
    In less than a month some green will emerge in the scenery. It's a short hike, but with good elevation. Great workout.
    Popak peak - 1201 meters above sea level.

    That looks steep! I think I would have only carried one knife climbing that. And a small one.

    28 km hike (total) to a beautiful waterfall. It got dark before we got back to the car and we had to use flashlights the last hour or so. It was awesome. My mate's battery turned out to be dead, so the little Olight I5T emerged from my outdoor kit and got quite some use. The main light was my trusty M23. The GPS was very useful for keeping track in complete darkness.

    Adventure time!

    Everything is close to where I live, no more than 35 km away. The black goat jumped out of some bushes and stole some of my food while I was not watching it :D
