If you’re wondering why I’ve been quiet, it’s because last week we pootled off to Sozopol for a little break with my family, and this week I’ve been generally readjusting to non-holiday life. Last week I was rolling out of bed and into the pool before eating a lovely cooked breakfast. This week I’ve been rolling out of bed and trying not to trip over any cats before eating, if I’m lucky, a boiled egg while hunched over my keyboard. Glam.
Here are some pics from beautiful, sunny Sozopol.
Our lovely villa…

| View of the sea from the pool. We saw dolphins on our last day. (I mean, I wasn’t that excited by the dolphins because, personally, I find them creepy and am pretty sure they’re evil. But the fact that we saw dolphins seems like the sort of holiday anecdote you should tell.) |
 |
| Nifty outdoor seating area. |
And, OH MY GOD, I have to tell you about the bonkers, bonkers, batshit crazy, bonkers Ravadinovo Castle…
 |
| Yes, it’s a newly built Bavarian castle. In Bulgaria. We were greeted at the entrance by a King who told us it was ‘tradition’ to have our picture taken with him so we could buy it for 5 leva as we left. They even put it on a fridge magnet. |
 |
| I mean, they really went to town on the place. Sadly, you can’t go inside as it’s still being built. But I cannot WAIT to go back one day and see what they do to the interior. I’m picturing Camelot crossed with Posh and Becks’ wedding. You? |
 |
| I can’t tell you how much I loved it there. |
 |
| They even had real (and very sharp) weapons left lying around for visitors to play with. |
 |
| This is the Grecian bit, obviously. Look, you should just go. It’s the best 10 leva I ever spent in my life. |
