Gori – Akhaltsikhe  

By Arnaud and Roos 

Dirk is already working on the T-Ford at half past seven in the pouring rain. The left steering knuckle pin is worn and will be replaced. We have a nice hotel with a key spot behind the hotel, but we had not ordered the rain. Trudy assists with umbrella ☂️  

The hotel has a pool. It’s a very serious swimming pool, so we swim laps wearing a swimming cap 🤣  

Today we follow the route along the Kura River . We have a beautiful road past villages, through the mountains. Of course many bends and unfortunately also rain again. But after the rain comes sunshine again. The river flows heavily, especially in the second half of the route, and you can also go rafting here. But we do it while driving. And after a whole day of driving and approximately 140 km, we arrive in Akhaltsikhe where we have a delicious meal in a street at the foot of the Rabati castle.
