Clotho, Patsy and I decided to go away for a long weekend, girls only! We went near Lankaran and Masalli which are in the southern part of Azerbaijan, close to Iran.
We loaded up the car (thank you Patsy for driving) with everything and anything we might need for an action packed girls weekend. We had our bikes, our hiking boots, yoga mats, running shoes and an adventurous spirit!
Yeah, actually we did miss Lankaran and almost ended up crossing into Iran! Patsy and Clotho pose beneath the road sign (one of very few).
One of the many fine eating establishments.On the first night we stayed at a 'resort' called Relax. Wow, did we get to relax!!! Once we got there we went for a great hike and that night we slept for 12 hours!!!
On our hike we ran into some friends
Clotho and Patsy bundled up!
The fall colors were gorgeous!
The second day we did a lot of driving and found ourselves on another great hike.
We had a kind of 'Blair Witch' night on the second night. We didn't get to the lodge until late at night, it was dark and misty so we really didn't know the area. During the night, the little lodge (pic below) was shaking and leaves were rustling outside, we thought a person was shaking the lodge!!! We jumped into bed altogether because we were so scared about the shaking and noises.

On the way back to Baku we stopped at the beach in Lankaran...

This is why the Caspian is dirty!

Marine Ball, November 15. Every November the Marine's host a ball in honor of their birthdate. It is the event of the year for me, those of you who know me - I love a man in uniform and Marines are included! This party is always a great time, and this year was no different (ok, well the flirt factor was down this year a bit, stars weren't aligned - I guess).
