Day 12 (May 15) - On the Road Again ... to Batumi

Today we packed up and made the six (plus) hour drive to the seaside town of Batumi. We stayed overnight at the Hotel Alik before moving to Buknari for the camp. The hotel was very modern and Mr. Alik himself was outside to greet us. We parked the van next to his black Hummer. He seems to be an influential man. Batumi is a beautiful port city and we enjoyed a delicious meal at a local restaurant.
