The title of this post was not an easy one as I had many in mind - "Las Batumi"; "Batumegas"; "Batumi - The new Sin City" among others. In a way, the idea was always the same. Batumi is a new born city by the black sea with lots of 5 stars hotels, posh casinos and the ever so needed dancing fountains. It's not quite as Vegas or Macau but is getting there on a supersonic speed. However, it has something that those cities don't really have, a real beach! It's definitely a plus as it makes the city more attractive to a bigger range of tourists. Also, it's fairly close to Europe and of course to the Russian magnates..
For this and much more, Batumi is well worth a visit (specially for hen parties) and according to Donald Trump, Batumi is going to be the best place in the world just as he is getting ready to build another of his towers right in the heart of Batumi. Let's wait and see Donald..
The hitchhiking is still on top of the list of the most exiting stuff that I've done in Georgia..This time we got a ride from a carriage pulled by a horse. A whole georgian family was on it - mom and dad, 3 little boys and the grandmother... Priceless!
