David Gareja, Saturday, 30 July 2011

We started our trip to very early, at 6.30, to avoid the mid-day heat at this desert like place.
We walked the up to the mountain ridge which is the border to Azerbaijan to se the frescoes in the caves that once were homes and churches for monks.

We stopped to buy some water melons – plenty of such places on the roadside when you approach Tbilisi.

I'm very interested in your travels, especially in Georgia. I work for a charity that funds projects in the parks. Is there a way to get in touch with you?
