I had a very fun extended weekend at the seaside, including a couple of days in Constanta and Mamaia and a full Monday in Bulgaria.
I really have to mention the incredibly poor services at La Scoica Land in Navodari. It took them 2.5 hours to put food on our table and we were no exception. The waiters' attitude also left much to be desired. On the other hand the services at the Ariciul restaurant in Balchik were exceptional. However, despite popular belief prices were slightly bigger
A very funny thing about Bulgaria was the Varna - Bourgas highway which ended suddently after only 7.5 km.
On our way back we stopped to visit the ancient fortified town of Kalyakra, situated on an elongated peninsula, with high cliffs on all sides, reaching out miles into the Black Sea. Unfortunately not much is left of the old city besides the walls but the landscape (or rather the seascape) was extraordinary, especially since we saw it at sunset.
To complete the picture as we were gazing out into the sunset from the cliffs of Kalyakra we saw a group of dolphins playing in the waters below. I had never seen dolphins in the wild in the Black Sea before but it was every bit as amazing as I imagined.
