Thursday Negotin today Bulgaria

The cost of accommodation has settled at about 30 to 40 euros for an ensuite room for two with breakfast so the decision to post the camping gear home is well justified. Amazingly our 10k parcel took just 3 days to arrive with Ian in Chester....and I wasn't even sure it was air mail....fantastic so if you ever need a heavy parcel to get somewhere quick...fly to a remote Hungarian village to post it!
Tonight we are in Vidin. The change at the Serb border was dramatic, the town being significantly poorer looking and post communist in architecture.
Riding into Vidin was through row after row of high rise flats each with its large number painted on the side...a little soulless to say the least. The place is a bit of a culture shock for Europe...
Looks like just a couple more days of 31c then a more sensible drop to mid 20's ....bliss
