Will restaurants and shops stay open or is it not worth it if the lift system is shut? We were due to to travel out next Sat to a friends apartment in Bansko and basically want to know if there will be anything still open!
Thanks

It ends tomorrow sadly, the operator deciding that its not financially viable Mad I am considering adopting the same attitude in our business, so anyone who lands in Sofia outside of our desired times (12.00-13.00) and is not willing to front up at least 200 Euro (although we advertised 100 Euro) can go and hang, and don't bother contacting anyone else as we have bought their businesses and laid them off Wink We will transport you to Bansko, and then, only if we feel like it, and you are sooooooooooo grateful Surprised
