3 weeks and counting, varna liberty parade

Text written in: English

So it has been about three weeks now since my friend Jeff and I arrived to my favorite beach in the world. There were many long days in the sun with little or no wind and no clouds. I about baked to death every day. Actually when I did manage to come to the nearest town to check e-mails I was so miserable from the heat that I could barely even read my messages.

Today though it is nice and cloudy. I'm no longer concerned with wanting sun cause 3 weeks in the sun has given me as much tan as I think my body can support.

This weekend there is a big house music fastival called the Liberty Parade where a big caravan (its called the liberty parade) makes its way from the other beaches and eventually arrives at the beach that I am at and everybdy piles in to dance like a bunch of whirling dervishes on crack. I am the lucky guy who gets to hear "Thump thump thump thump thump" over and over again for about 3 days strait. They built this huge stage on the beach with all kinds of cool lights ans stuff. Too bad I think house music sounds as good as me pooping after eating mexican food.

I had a random encounter with some people who took a day trip to Varna, Bulgaria and they offered me a place in their car. so I went to Varna. It is a COOL city.  It actually feels a little like barcelona. It also feels like how I imagine greece would be. It was kind of funny when i went there. After being in romania for so long I forget how usefull it is to know the language. In bulgaria I was reduced to the guy that points at things and grunts. I want that.... That thing there. All the signs were in cyrilic which is the same alphabet that Russian uses. Even in Mc Donalds the stuff was in cyrilic. It was fun to feel so helpless. All i spen was 5 euro and I had food and drinks all day. The beaches were cool too.

So I guess that about wraps it up here. I can read your messages. I won't reply though if you have questions. Sorry it isn't in my priority cause the internet is just too slow and I have to pay. But I am thinking of all my friends and I truly wish all of you could be here cause even though I am having fun having all you all here would make it better.

Love and peace and all that crap,

Drew
