Sometimes Harry Potter doesn't give you an accurate representation of a country


When I entered Bulgaria my knowledge began and ended with Victor Krum. I had no expectations at all about the Sofia, but I ended up loving it! 
My first day there was "children's day" and as I walked through the adorable main park of the city children and parents of all ages where out having a good time. I saw kids skateboarding, a boy learning to ride a bike, as well as several families riding razor scooters together. 

I sat on a bench eating this with a To-Go slice of pizza, which is the street food of Sofia. Few people spoke English so I just ordered one of the two kinds available and ended up with some sort of dill pickle and turkey (or some other meat?) pizza. Even stranger than pickle pizza was how much I enjoyed the pickle pizza though 
I also enjoyed some fresh squeezed right in front of my face pineapple-mango-strawberry juice 
Bulgarian night life is apparently crazy however we went out on a Sunday night which is not the night to go out, but we did run into a fun pack of transvestites!
