Hamburg

The first weekend in October I put my money where my mouth is and railset off to Hamburg. We stayed with Eva's friend Emel and Christoph and their two fun boys.

Armenia

We took the train from Tblisi to Yerevan. Upon arriving in Armenia we picked up a rental car and met up with Sasha and Tamara. We decided to do a road trip of Southern Armenia.So we hopped in our way too low to the road Kia, loaded our 3 kilos of peaches, and hit the road. We saw quite a few monasteries, drank a few bottles of wine, and never missed a serving of tomatoes and cucumbers.

Arriving in the morning in the central square of Yerevan.

Attitude Jesus.

Exactly what I thought.

Wine by choice.

Tblisi

After coming down from the mountains we arrived in the capital city of Tblisi. At first glance, I was amazed by Tblisi not expecting anything. The old city of Tblisi built into the narrow valley is a jewel.

A little Bohemian Georgian affair.

Modern Georgian cuisine.
