Caucasus Trip: The road less ventured...

"The old ones are still the best. Old jeans, old boots, old friends, old movies, old tunes and old times..."


I had discarded my old walking boots and replaced them with brand new ones, lighter and comfortable...

Hubby and I will be on the road again. We will be away for about three weeks, joining a small group of frequent travellers to explore some places of interest in Georgia, Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh and Arzerbaijan in the first two weeks.

The final week, Hubby and I will split from the group. We plan to travel by bus or train to Bulgaria and visit the capital city of Sofia. We will stay in Sofia for a few days, then travel to Istanbul for a free and easy activity before we board the plane back home.

The trip is going to be very hectic with a lot of walking. My last visit to the specialist, I complained of pain in my heels. My doctor's early diagnosis was Plantar Fascilitis. The walking activity will either cure my painful heels or will make them worst.

I am praying for the best...

The Road Not Taken 
(By Robert Frost)

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 
And sorry I could not travel both 
And be one traveller, long I stood 
And looked down one as far as I could 
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 

Then took the other, as just as fair, 
And having perhaps the better claim, 
Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 
Though as for that the passing there 
Had worn them really about the same, 

And both that morning equally lay 
In leaves no step had trodden black. 
Oh, I kept the first for another day! 
Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 
I doubted if I should ever come back. 

I shall be telling this with a sigh 
Somewhere ages and ages hence 
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I 
I took the one less travelled by, 
And that has made all the difference…
