Sacrificial lamb.

Actually, I think this is more of a 'party sheep' than sacrificial one. So we were at a parking lot near the Sevan island monastery when this RAF minivan pulled up. Some 5-6 people got out of it and left the parking lot, either going to visit the churches of the monastery, or the nearby restaurant.

This lamb was riding together with them. The man with the purple pants is the driver who stayed in the minivan, either to take care of the animal, or to prevent it from eating the upholstery.

On the way to Sevan from Yerevan, there are a number of roadside vendors who sell different beach necessities such as towels or inflatable toys. Among such necessities are also sheep and firewood :).
