Day 13-14 October 28-29

Today we woke up very late, we were out really late last night.  We packed up our stuff and checked out of the hotel at 10:30 am. When we stepped outside it felt the same as yesterday but not too bad. We put our stuff in our rental car and drove around downtown Baku looking for trinkety souvenirs and where we could.  We also managed to get some pictures of the skyline here in Baku:

After looking and driving around the city we ate a quick bite from a kabob cart, beef this time, I think. The next step was to return the rental car and catch our plane ride home! We checked in to the airport and received our boarding passes. An hour was spent trying to get through security, the language barrier was finally becoming a major hindrance, its hard to explain what you need to someone who has no idea what you are saying. Security let us through, finally! We then tried to find our gate, did you know that it is very hard to navigate an airport when you can't read the signs!  We reached our gate with 12 min. to spare, a close one! Which was surprising because we had 4 hours to get there.  

We are boarded on the flight and are now off to London!

We arrived in London late at night and we ventured, much easier than Baku, to our gate to wait for the flight to RDU and HOME!!  Don't misinterpret this, Baku was great, but Dorthy new best; there is no place like home!  The breakfast at the airport was a typical London breakfast, a hard roll and some cheese, and bacon. We are about to board our flight back, just one final hop of the pond!

I really enjoyed this trip and I am glad I decided to go to the exquisite country of Azerbaijan! This trip will be remembered for a long time!

Budget
One thing that everyone is always worried about when they travel is the costs and your budget.  We had saved up $5,500 each, so a total of $27,500 for our trip. Our budget analysis can be viewed at this link: Budget Analysis.
