A slice of Carrot Cake
Its one of them trips out we had planed for some-time but taken a long time to get around

along the back lanes from Malomirovo to the village of kalchevo just outside Yambol for this our first visit to Kalchevo and the Kalchevo Tea Room.

Sitting and watching
Watching life go by in Bulgaria is all part of there weekly routine for the locals from small towns
or rural villages. On town market days the mornings are full of Bulgarians shopping by early afternoon the main street is empty as they fill up the cafe bars, park seats, just sit chat
and watch life go bye. Life in rural Bulgaria is like a step back in time, this land that time has forgot. Even on an afternoon not a market day you will find
someone sitting and just watching what ever is happening, even if their is notting happening you will still find a local sitting and waiting.
