Georgia is a beautiful country I loved visiting. I saw a few strange things in my ten days there though, here are a few of them…

Cows in the roads were a common hazard when travelling off the main highways. I never saw an accident but the second photo below suggests one that I only noticed when looking through my photos. Thankfully some cows were more observant when crossing roads… The main city of Tbilisi provided a number of sights including some cunning car storage, the steepest wheelchair ramps I’ve ever seen, well-marked road works, statues of someone jumping off a bridge, a coffee mug shaped car, a main road over historic ruins, and a couple of stretched limos! A better idea are these kiosks found around the country, offering people without internet the ability to access online banking and other public services.Spotted a few footwear options at markets in Mtskheta and Kutaisi. The Kutaisi markets also catered to those interesting in large quantities of cheese and meat. Also spotted in Kutaisi was a sign post to a bunch of pretty random places and a slightly dodgy looking staircase. Further along the road a toilet break was enlivened by the sight of a couple of burnt out trucks. More roadside interest in some questionable pottery. Finally some sensitive architecture in Ushguli, fitting in well with the thousand-year old stone towers of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Thankfully the plan is to tidy up the village by 2018 with exteriors more in keeping with the historic buildings.
