A thing and then a hike in Dilijan

Two things, real quick-like:

I saw some cyclists with the colorful spandex biking suits on my way back from the capital two weekend's ago.  I was more surprised to see them than I was to see the cows bringing us to a halt on the highway later on during the trip.

I also went to a hike in Dilijan a few Sundays ago.  It is an old Soviet resort town East of Vanadzor about 40 minutes away.  We had a general idea of where to go, but mostly just walked up the hill and eventually got to what was more or less a path.  We saw some horses grazing, and went beyond them up the mountain finally going up a steep hill to a cliff and have breakfast.

I've been going on a lot of small hikes on the weekends, and it's been refreshing and fun to see the nature in and around Vanadzor, and I finally remembered to take my camera on this one.
