Contact Admin. Alrighty, let me tell you what happened after we left the charming city of Veliko Tarnovo. Our plan was to spend one day in Belogradchik, as it is famous for having beautiful sandstone towers and a fortress. The latter potentially also beautiful. The plan was to stay there for four days, since it was located in the middle of the forest. Perfect for running and hiking around the area.
Of course as always everything turned out differently. We arrived in Belogradchik late at night and went right to bed. In the morning we woke up in our cute little Pensiunea , excited for a day of exploring the sandstone towers. Rain was pissing down and there was fog as thick as cotton! The sight was so depressing that we decided to fuck it and go ahead to Vratsa. So off to Vratsa we went, quite excited for the stay in the Mountain Lodge.
The area of Ledenika Lodge was promising — the higher up we drove, the better the weather was getting. When we arrived at the accommodation the sun was shining! All of Vratsa was in deep fog but we were standing in a pretty clearing with amazing weather. First she came to fix the toilet herself. She got in, closed the door and the engineering began.
We could hear her taking the trash bin and filling it up with water, which she then used to flush the toilet. Our friend Liuben came to our rescue as he is Bulgarian and was reachable on the phone.
He bargained with the old lady that she would give us our money back if she could have the toilet working in the next 30 minutes. Said and done, an of-alcohol-and-cigarettes-reeking handymen arrived after 5 minutes and spend 10 minutes in the bathroom. When he left there was a trickle in the flush — not enough to rinse anything. We packed our stuff, went to the dotard and expected to get the money back. The place was actually quite nice and we were just relieved to be there. I wrote hooker-scare for a reason.
