Finally Europe!!

After our last night in Turkey near the sea where we saw dolphins and cruis ships, it was time to move on. Italy was waiting! The trip was OK and even the formality at the Turkish border was quick. In Bulgaria it was different. We went to 6 different stations. At the first one they gave us a flash card with our details and we had to give that to every station. It was confusing and at a certain point we thought we could keep this flash card. At the last station we had to give it back, but we were in Bulgaria. What a difference to Turkey. Small roads and it started to rain. Our last rain was in Khartoum. It was getting cold as well. So we felt we had to rush on. What is the point staying in Bulgaria. We managed to get to the Serbian border in time, although we had to wait 45 minutes. It was their supper time. But again formalities went smooth. Serbia was in a better condition than Bulgaria. The roads much better and the houses gave us the idea of being in Austria. We managed to find a nice hotel and slept for a long time, because the day after we realised that it was 1 hour earlier.
