Sofia to Skopje

Sofia to Skopje

Our Nick from the hotel drove us to the Central Bus Station. We caught our bus to Skopje. This gave us an opportunity to check out the countryside of both Bulgaria and Macedonia. The Bulgarian country side looked very depressed and very dry and dusty. The mountains were impressive. When we crossed the border, we drove through a beautiful river valley and it was green. Many farmers and their families were working the fields. It would be a very hard life.
We met Collaredas in Skopje and booked into the most crappy motel I have ever stayed in. it will not be getting a positive rating!!
We had a walk around to get our bearings. We walked over the Stone Bridge, very famous. Walked nearly to the forrtress and a little of the Turkish Bazaar. We found a really nice restaurant for dinner. After dinner it was to the Jack Daniels Bar for an ouzo.
