A winter storm in Istanbul closed the airports for a few days, which canceled our flight from Sofia to Istanbul on Sunday morning, March 13.  We were able – at a price! – to book for Sunday night when the airport reopened.  This left us a “bonus day” in Sofia!

How did we spend our day?  First, we visited the Sofia Synagogue, which wasn’t able on either of our previous Sofia exploration days.  Then we went to the Ladies’ Bazaar.  Our bonus day gave us a great opportunity to see some of the sights we hadn’t been able to enjoy earlier in our journey.
