A stopover in Akhaltsikhe enroute to Borjome

Friday, May 17, 2019
Borjomi Central Park, Samtskhe-Javakheti, Georgia
From the mountain village of Stepantsminda it would be a six hour colectivo journey to the spa town of Borjomi, followed by a two night stopover in Akhaltsikhe, near the Turkish frontier. Elenka’s photo collection starts with the sheep on the road to Borjomi, is followed by a tourist-less walk-thru of Rabati Fortress, then finishes with a visit to the ancient monastery of Vardzia.

Tomorrow we go to Turkey. If they let us in.

Certainly, from the photographs this has to be one of the most spectacular trips you've taken.

Looks amazing. I have friends that go to Georgia to sing with local folk musicians. I have sung Georgian music quite a bit as the choir I was in was led by them and they have studied this type of music extensively. It's amazing to hear.
