Lovely one-day trip to Armenia. Our host, Timo, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Worth taking some Armenian Dram if you want to buy a drink or keepsake. We took equivalent of about $10 which was fine - we got it from an ATM on the border but it didn't work for everyone (there is a currency exchange but the queue was quite long). Border crossings can be long, more on the Georgian exit/entry than the Armenian side. The food with the family was lovely and plentiful.
