Tbilisi to Yerevan via the land border

Back in the saddle . . . another travel day. I take joy in the successful accomplishment of all the moves, and they are:

• Taxi from hotel to obscure street corner on the other side of Tbilisi to catch bus (9 passenger van)
• Arriving early enough to catch the 9 am bus that left at 8:30
• Crossed the land border between Georgia and Armenia without issue
• Arrived in Yerevan (the capital of Armenia) in the expected 5 hours
• Walked the 2 kms from bus stop to hotel
• Hotel wanted cash only, so wandered around to find an ATM that worked (took a couple tries)
• Checked into hotel
• Turned in my laundry for service
• Found food and drink (you know what I mean)
• . . . and now lounging to get the next move set up
• BTW, hash is on Saturday, YeeHaw

Photos are random shots from inside the vehicle on the way down. Also a close up of the predominant building structures. Similar to Aberdeen, Yerevan is also known as the Granite city. Whereas Aberdeen is mostly the slate grey stone version, Yerevan is made up of the pinkish granite.Read more
