Mrs. Orca on the last descent in the Rila Mountains, heading down to Predel Saddle (1140m). The mountains in the distance are the Pirin Mountains, and I believe the highest, pyramidal peak right of center is Vihren (2914m), which we traversed two days later. Mrs. Orca descending toward Predel Saddle on the Five Mountains Trail (E4), Rila Mountains, Bulgaria.

In 2022 murals were painted in Margate as a part of their Rise Up and Clean Up residency. More information can be found here: riseupresidency.co.uk Unfortunately we didn't find them all, being unfamiliar with some of the areas we gave up once we had walked 8 miles

From the Classical Era through the 20th century, before the invention of the interwebs, people communicated with each other over long distances and even greater spaces of time by making markings on convenient flat surfaces such as clay tablets, animal skins, or a forest product called "paper." Because these markings could be arranged to represent words, and those words could be organized into ideas, they were thought very useful and versatile. For example, they were sometimes composed in such a way as to communicate a personal message (called a "letter"), transfer money via a third party to a named person or entity (called "paying the bills," done by "writing checks"), or even tell a story (sometimes called "literature," if the story was a good one).
Depending on the era, a remarkable proportion of the population was able to communicate via such markings (or "literate"), and since one of governments' chief functions was to organize their movement (called "the mail"), they often built large and ornate buildings (called "post offices") to facilitate this activity. Today some people contend that the work that was done in these buildings was carried out by snails, but that is only a whimsical urban legend. It instead seems that in the period of transition during which the use of these markings was becoming obsolete, their movement was increasingly viewed as cumbersome and slow, giving rise to the term "snail mail."
Above, the Socialist Modernist Central Post Office in Plovdiv (1970s). During construction of the massive building the 1st century Roman Forum (foreground) was discovered and partially excavated. The building is still in use but is decaying and much of it is empty or repurposed. When we arrived the whole area seemed to have been taken over temporarily by Coca Cola, since it was lined with banners and youths passing out free cokes. Central Post Office, Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
