Czernowitzers...
Eighth stage of my motorcycle ride to Bukovina and far, far beyond. In numerous travel guides Batumi in Georgia is referred to as "Mini Las Vegas on the Black Sea" and from one of the postcards available at Batumi souvenir shops, we learn "Keep Calm and Visit Batumi". From my point of view the comparison with Las Vegas shows symptoms of megalomania and "Keep Calm and Visit Batumi" is nothing but a contradiction in terms.

Hypercritical? Maybe, but from now on, with each further stage, we are approaching Bukovina. A long way still to go, but no diversions any more, promised!
