Subject: Post: Nothing seems to go perfectly today. We woke up early in the morning and left Tbilisi in beautiful sunshine towards Gudauri. Two hours of driving and when approaching Gudauri we saw the mountain disappearing into a cloud. So, obviously the entire country is sunny and nice today, EXCEPT the ski resort of Gudauri. There was again basically zero visibility and most of the lifts were closed due to that, so just decided to drive back to Tbilisi.One company / flight club has been organizing sightseeing flights from Naktakhari airfield, which happened to be on our way back to Tbilisi. As we now had a couple of hours to spend and Tbilisi weather would be great for flying we stopped by the airfield for a while, but did not find anybody else than cats in there. And well, were too lazy to start calling them to ask, we were a bit short on time anyway..After losing my nerves a couple of times with the horrible driving habits of Tbilisi taxi drivers in traffic we arrived to the airport, dropped off our rental car and.. Noticed that our flight to Kiev was delayed. And not just a bit delayed, at the moment they are expecting some six hours of delay. At least we got "generous" 25 GEL cafe vouchers for that.. Seriously, Ukraine International Airlines, 25 GEL? That's like less than 10€.By the way, the tire we destroyed earlier cost us 250 GEL then, about 90€. Not too happy of that, but it was still good price for such a tire. Could have been worse. Latitude: Longitude: Security Code:
