How Could I Resist?

Driving home this morning, I spotted a little ball of fluff on the side of the road. I stopped the car a little further along and walked back to where a tiny, skinny puppy was wandering around, looking very lost and cold. He came straight to me and sat down for a fuss. His little tailed wagged and he seemed so happy to receive a little attention.

Anyway, there was no way I could leave him there then, with the thought he may get run over or starve or freeze. So I put him in the car and brought him home. He was invested with fleas so he got covered in flea powder and had a packet of cat food to eat, which he wolfed down.

 
After his first proper meal in a while

Introduced to Bessy the cat

Then I popped him outside and carefully introduced him through wire mesh to my other 4 dogs. Then put a blanket down for him in a spare pen and left him to sleep and settle down.

Not sure what I will do with him but he is adorable. Will have to take him to vets to get checked out.

Have only just managed to send two other rescue puppies to a centre for re-homing to try and reduce the number of pets I have and now I have added another to the brood.

Buzludzha Local Skiing

Well after first dump of snow we headed up the mountain to Buzludzha and the small ski area there, just a 20 minute drive from Kazanlak. Surprisingly the renovated 2 star hotel was completely full and the other hotel was a little out the way so we decided to try the hostel, right at the base of the one working poma lift. The area does not fully open until the 23rd December and then there are a couple of longer poma runs, and a couple of nursery slopes.

The cost was 10 levs a day for ski and boot hire and the equipment was fairly new and in good condition and the skis were all set up properly. The lift was then 12 levs a day. It became quite busy on the Sunday afternoon and as the piste is not groomed at all it did become a little scraped off and bumpy as the day went on.



Only a very small ski area but great for a day or weekend up in the mountain.
