Day 6, Trabzon, Turkey

Welcome to Trabzon, a port city on the Black Sea coast not far from the Georgıan border. Not much to report from the road, good driving all day; first part on the countrysıde road to Samsun and then on the Black Sea coastal road  towards Georgıa. Trabzon ıs a quite crowded town and it took as a whıle before we managed to reach the city centre. Twıce we tried and faıled ending up agaın and again on the maın highway. We have been informed that tomorrow Ramadan starts and we decıded to properly celebrate it by buying as many beers as possible...

We will slow down a bit in the next couple of days as there is no point in reaching Baku before Sunday as the Turkmenıstan Embassy will only be open durıng the Week. A Georgian weekend is therefore waıtıng for us. Friday in the part town of Batumi and Saturday in Tbilisi.
