I just got back from Bulgaria. I was in Sunny Beach on the Black Sea for five days. This trip was more of a personal one but I took my carnet with anyway. It was a 13 hour bus ride to Sunny Beach via Sophia from Skopje. We ended up crossing the border at about 2 in the morning. A customs official boarded the bus and requested passports from everyone but they did not check our luggage. I decided not to present the carnet at all because it would have delayed our bus and I think they would have not signed it being that I only had my camera with me again. I have less than a week remaining here. It doesnt look like I will be able to make a trip to Athens. I don't think I can handle another long bus ride. I would drive myself but our car is in my dad's name and therefore I am not allowed to drive it out of the country. Here are some pics from Sunny Beach. It was actually very nice. Prices were pretty low, I felt safe, and many people spoke English. There were many tourists from Germany, England, and other Western European countries. I had a really nice time but Bulgarian people came off as being rude.
