After the tremendous effort of day 19, we just couldn't muster up too much energy, so we decided to go at a snail's pace for days 20 and 21.We made it 52 miles in two days to the rather romantic sounding "City of Lights", Mingachevir (not quite so romantic when you find it is so-named because of its hydroelectric power station).
Oh well, it gave me time to stock up on the rather gorgeous Azeri speciality of spinach and pumpkin kutab (see photo), trying as many soups that I can (the national cuisine) of which there are over 30 different types, and don't get me started on the divine sherbert drink....
