We have now reached Plovdiv on our journey http://www.bulgariatravel.org/etis/bycity.php?cityID=73&regionID=7.Came here this morning, travelled by bus from Devin where we have spent the past two days. Devin is one of several spa-towns in Bulgaria, and is also the place where the water comes from, or to be correct, most of the botteled water here in Bulgaria. Yesterday we rented bicycles and went to Devils Throat, 23 km from Devin http://get.info.bg/visit/Dir.asp?d=0-4-Nature-Caves-Devils_throat_cave. When finally back in Devin it was really nice to order full body massage, 50 minutes costing only 25 levas, or times four to get that in Norwegian kroner.

To get from Bansko to Devin we went with bus from Bansko to Goce Delcev. Then we took another bus to Dospat, a really old one with no working suspension at all. When in Dospat there was still 40km left to Devin, the time was 14.00 and the last bus for Devin left at 11.00. Two french guys where facing the same problem, and we where wondering what to do. But, when we realized that sharing a cab would only cost us 20 NOK each, there was no problem anymore. So we got to drive a cab as fast as no one of us ever had done before on narrow roads in Bulgaria. Our guess was that he must have had PS2 and WRC back home.

Now in Plovdiv we will just hang around for two days we think, then head off to Sofia on friday.
