There was a man sitting on the bench in the foreground watching people but he’s gone now. He looked like he might be a lonely man. He was stocky and short, and casually dressed. He had a smile on his face as if he was bemused and just happy to be observing all the people walking by, but there was a sad cloud hovering over him.

There is no one sitting on the bench now.

The street is pretty busy with people walking back and forth. The street I’m looking at, Alexandrovska Street,  seems like it’s for pedestrians and bikers only (at least the section that I can see). I haven’t seen any cars drive on it, and people are walking pretty casually and comfortably in the the middle of road, even pushing strollers with little children.

It looks like it might be Fall in Rousse, Bulgaria. Everyone’s wearing jackets and coats; but it doesn’t look like it’s a very cold day because no one’s necessarily bundled up. I saw two girls stroll by dressed in black. One was talking on her cellphone; and at the same time two other women were heading in the opposite direction pushing strollers.

I’ve even seen some pigeons going on their merry way crossing the street.

At some point later a young woman in black went to sit on the bench to smoke a cigarette.
