SofiaLand
22 July 2004
OSI-Bulgaria took 12 of our best-behaved Slatino kids to SofiaLand, -Sofia's wonderful new, modern amusement park. It's not a big place, with about 20 rides total, but it's a wonderful place for the kids to visit and there are enough amusements to occupy the entire day.
Our Day
It was a long day, as we left Slatino at 8:30 in the morning, traveled 2 hours by bus to Sofia, and then another 20 minutes by taxi to SofiaLand. The return was the same, only we stopped in Dupnitza where the kids were all fed dinner and more ice-cream. We finally arrived in Slatino at 10 pm, 13 1/2 hours after we had left! It was also a HOT day, so the log-ride was the most-frequented and functioned quite well in keeping everyone cool. The kids behaved perfectly and had a GREAT time! It is certainly a day that they will remember for a long time.
