Thessaloniki

Tonight is my last night in Greece. We're getting up at the crack of dawn tomorrow to catch the train to Sofia, Bulgaria. It's only a 6 hour ride, so we'll see if we can continue straight away to Bucharest or if we'll have to spend a night in a hotel. Bulgaria seems a bit frightening. Apparently, I'm supposed to adamantly refuse any and all taxi offers from the airport or train station. Stories of purse snatchings, slashings, pickpocketing etc are everywhere. 'Course, this is what we'd read about India and we had absolutely no troubles of that sort there. We'll see what happens.
