Mild October morning. The year is somewhere in the 30s. Burgas has blossomed into a prosperous seaside town. The soul of the city bohemian is thirsty for adventure, despite the hangover. The first stop of his afternoon walk, he thinks, will be the pastry shop "Edelweiss". Opposite the Maiden’s High School, whose graduates by habit shily smile from the tables anticipating uncle Dimitar, the proprietor and chief postman in this house of pure love, to send a conspiratorial look precisely at them.

If there is nothing interesting, he can always "flow down" to the pastry shop "Malina" at "Aleksandrovska" str. A nice and cozy place. There he will move his lazy brain in light conversations with the local cultural society. "The Atanasovi brothers select their clientele well. Not like that Chalyovski across the street with his fancy biscuits, always stealing from his customers!"- this tirade about the Atanasovi brothers our Burgas bohemian had heard a thousand times. And after that it is always necessary to drink a cup of coffee at the Armenian Postadjian – the most aromatic in Burgas. It's time for dinner.  Should he stop by the "Continental" to try the new invention of chef Stefan - Roll "Stephanie" maybe it was called?

Or is it better to go straight to "Warsaw"? Maybe he will find a lady for several dances. This evening on the terrace there will be two musicians with clarinet and accordion. He foretasted some good fun.

There is another option – the Officers Club next to the Duhtev house. There he will have to be content to watch the beautiful Parisian dresses of the ladies of the elite. They will move gracefully through the open dance floor, looking at him just barely with the corner of their eye. But how sweet are these looks...

And all, of course, will end up in "Bohemi" at uncle Costa. Here the dances are a must. Nakata will play with the accordion, uncle Mincho Pitropopov will bring out the saxophone and everyone will dance.

The Burgas bohemian slightly closed his eyes. The seagulls bang on the window of his attic. It's so tiring to make plans. It is  time to sleep.
