It seems that sheer chance governed my trip through Armenia. I somehow stumbled upon that post when I was in Azerbaijan and agreed to meet up with Roseanna to see Yerevan and hear about places to go.

Er?

And?
I'd told Roseanna that I'd been thinking of going to Nagorno-Karabakh and she mentions that they have a client coming in to their tour agency (Discover Armenia) looking to head there, but he won't be arriving for a few days. I think that I won't be in Yerevan long enough to meet up with the guy so put the thought in the back of my head. I definitely did not expect to meet him the way I did, but that's another story.
I spend another few days in Yerevan because I love it so much, taking in several sights:
Museum of Manuscripts

Newly built pedestrian street.
Yerevan philharmonia, a steal at only 500 drams (less than $1.50 USD). The same price applied at the Russian language theatre.
Recently built cathedral.
In the evening I catch the republic square fountain show:
