Well, not exactly...
I'm in one of the former republics of the old Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - this time the Republic of Georgia, just north of where I was last year when I visited Armenia.
I left Seattle at 4:26 on Thursday afternoon, and after flying through the under-renovation Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX (SUX) and then through Munich (very nice), I arrived in Tbilisi at dawn on Saturday morning - which, after considering the time difference, amounts to 24 hours on-the-go travel...
Ugh...
I've checked into the very nicely appointed Courtyard Marriot Tbilisi - by far the most posh place I've ever spent money on during a mission, even concidering that I've been assigned a roommate and am splitting the cost. I usually prefer to stay in a more modest place and save my per-deim, but far be it for me to break the rules...
Took my morning walk after a brief nap, and time to get out and about with some of my colleagues for this mission.
We start our briefings tomorrow, and then head out into the field on Monday afternoon (Monday? I think? What day is it?)
More Later...
