The flag of Bulgaria superimposed on a map of the country. The capital is Sofia, where I stayed.
On the ground floor is the gallery with the minerals which I was not expecting to enjoy but I loved it. The colours were wonderful, green, purple, blue, pink. The shapes were astonishing. Little table tennis balls showed the DNA patterns. At the entrance was a giant stone, only knee high, but, on a table, it was waist high.
You have four floors to see. We started at the top.
The brown bear was alarming large. A horrid hippo, too, like a tank, was not something you would want to meet at night.
I admired the beautiful blue butterfly.
I photographed the starfish for my motivational talk about throwing back the starfish - 'made a difference to that one'.
Finally, the blindmouse. As a child I had heard the nursery rhyme about the three blind mice. I never realised there was such a creature as a blind mouse, with the official name of Blindmouse.
Photos will be added later.
Next door is the Russian Church with a wonderful gold roof. Free to enter. Tiny inside. Kiosk sells silver neck chains.
