Aug 11 - Slight continuation of weirdness

Got on the main coast road towards Georgia. Traffic was not as busy as I thought it would be.  In the evening we asked at an unfinished restaurant if we could camp on the property. The man on site gave us permission and then also made us tea and called his friend to deliver food for us. He seemed so happy to have the chance to entertain guests because at some point he called a taxi, drove off and returned with beer and vodka, which is really expensive in Turkey. We really enjoyed his company but after a few drinks he got a bit odd. He wanted to go to the disco and have a barbeque etc. but we just wanted to sleep. Every time we politely turned down his offers for night time adventures he got more upset to the point where we did not feel safe anymore and just had to leave. We felt really bad about it because he really was a nice guy and had showered us with utmost generosity but the alcohol had affected him quite badly. We got to camp at a gas station just down the road and went back to the restaurant in the morning to drop off a thank you card for our kind host from the night before.

THANKS BAGRAT FOR YOUR WONDERFUL HOSPITALITY AND EXCEPTIONAL KINDNESS.
