Internet sizmari (nightmare), Georgia

Several days now of no internet at home and in a significant part of Tbilisi, with rumours of an ISP having gone down. So I'm accessing it from a friend's house tonight. And a warm welcome to the first visitors to the blog from Jordan and Bangladesh, countries 91 and 92!

Today's photos are from my recent 25th tour of Svaneti - from Kurashi, top part of Etseri village. It has a purportedly 9th-century church with an 11th-century gospel, all of which I saw for the first time. The 3rd photo is a small copy of the wheel used to torture St George. And the bottom is a house in Kurashi.
