On our way to the Rhodopes, Georgi, Will and I took a 20 km detour over somewhat bumpy roads to natural stone arches, the names of which translate literally to "Wonderful Bridges." After doing a little circuit around the stone monuments, we set off on a hike of the area. The highlight was these little purple flowers that seemed to be peeking up right on the edge of the snow line. They must love the cold. Once the snow recedes, you can see fields of them all over the Rhodopes.

#3 is especially hopeful. Are these crocuses? JM
Well, I've been calling them crocuses, but I really don't know. They look like it, don't they? Just a little smaller, though...
I'll vote for crocuses. Even small, those flowers are pretty distinctive.
