Long weekend in Sofia

We stayed in Yotel in Gatwick airport last Wednesday night. It was a tiny compact hotel room to put our heads down for a few hours before our 6am flight. Sofia was a great city for a long weekend. We did some sightseeing, enjoyed the sunshine, ate some good food and enjoyed drinking £1 pints in cafes in parks across the city.

We went to a hidden bar lit entirely by candles, and went to a restaurant with a beer tap on every table, so you could help yourself to more beer! We went on a walking tour, a pub crawl, a Brazilian night and ate so much we couldn't sleep - all in all a good break!

We flew back into London Stansted and went to Meat Liquor in Central London with Sara and John. We had to queue up for a table, it was dark and noisy inside, but had the best chicken burgers in London!
