Our Christmas 2019 Adventure has begun.
Last year it was Cambodia and Ankhor Wat. In 2017 it was Australia.
This year is a proper road trip and we will be visiting lots of countries visiting as many Christmas markets as we can.
As today is about day 1 and day 1 starts at approx 7pm on Sunday. Arman our driver picked us up to take us to Tbilisi in Georgia (my 38th country).
It was an interesting journey. Once we crossed into Georgia we were amazed by the number of little stalls at the side of theroad. These stalls sold exclusively 3 items. Toilet Rolls, detergent and Tangerines.
Apparently these items are very cheap in Georgia and expensive in Armenia.
We arrived in Tbilisi and Robert got a pocket watch and I got my flag and we waited for the flight to Istanbul. It took off at stupid o' clock (5.25am).
In Istanbul we wanted coffee so we found a Starbucks....bliss...no Starbucks in Armenia. Then hunger growing we found a McDonalds to eat and get the free WiFi.
As I write this we have a 3 and a half hour wait for our next flight...to Budapest.
