Yerevan, Armenia

We made it to Yerevan, after several hours along a bad road, two hours at the border (damn governments), and a great feast of a dinner. You can't take the new good road because it is close to the border with Azerbaijan and Azeris sometimes shoot at cars; the two countries have an old territorial dispute, and Armenia controls land that Azerbaijan claims.

At the border, I met with Tom Palmer, my old friend and Cato Institute fellow, who was going from Armenia to Georgia. It was like a scene out of a Cold War movie, where the Russians and Americans make a prisoner exchange. It was quite a time and a nice reunion with Tom. We start another student seminar today, and return to Georgia on Thursday.

More later.
