The pool in the Rila is lovely, good spa facilities in Boro, wandering around the town in the snow, take the gondola up as a foot passenger, horse riding in the snow, atb trip, sit on top of a mountain and watch the skiing...

Day trip to Sofia, visit museums, shopping (Vitosha boulevard is good), parliament square, numerous bars and restaurants... and maybe Plovdiv, very interesting (more than Sofia), centre is lovely, modern, good nightlife, but with fantastic architecture and history.... Perhaps a 2 day stay there would be better, hotels in the centre, reasonable prices... It is possible to get the train to Plovdiv from Sofia, the train station in Sofia right opposite the bus station...
