Beach day

It's been a while since I went to a popular Armenian beach on the Sevanavank penninsula (known as g'ghzi, meaning island). I usually head to quieter parts. Yesterday's trip shows how much things have changed. Aside from it being packed with people, the beach gear has improved a great deal, there are life guards on jet skis, DJ pagodas in the water in front of beachfront dance floors, stores, restaurants all over, camping, etc, etc. It was a really fun day full of eating and enjoying. The funniest thing was hitting beach traffic on the way back to Yerevan. Beach traffic! In Armenia!! :-)
