Cheese as far as the eye can see.Piles and piles of fresh and smoked cheese at the Zugdidi main market. Wallace (of Wallace and Gromit fame) would be in heaven here! Read more about Georgian Food and our Surprising feast in Zugdidi.
While Leila organized, this woman watched over and made sure we were aptly supplied with honey and water cocktails and honey for our matsoni (Georgian yogurt).
A sampling of the other passengers crammed into the jeep with us from Zugdidi to Mestia. The women were more than a bit wary of us at first. But by the end of the trip, they offered us food, kisses, and even lip gloss (for Audrey, of course).Read about our visit to Svaneti and the rest of our visit to Georgia.
Dan is surrounded by the instant feast presented to us at the market in Zugdidi - lobio (Georgian beans), vegetables, bread, cheese, followed by yogurt mixed with honey and turkish coffee. Such a surprise. Such a treat.www.uncorneredmarket.com/2007/06/a-surprising-feast-in-zu...
Our driver from Zugdidi to Mestia was a jolly guy, happy to have his photo taken with Audrey from time to time.This old Russian jeep was filled with 10 people, their luggage, huge sacks of sugar and singing dolls...all for a fascinating, 7.5 hour-long journey.Read about our visit to Svaneti and the rest of our visit to Georgia.
Leila, the one in the middle, was our host at the market. She managed to find lobio and put together a feast for us in minutes. Astonishing hospitality!Read more about Georgian Food and our Surprising feast in Zugdidi.

Luckily, the driver wasn't partaking *too* much in the vodka part of this stop.....En route from Zugdidi to Mestia, past the Russian checkpoint.
Not quite 900 years old...but rather nine years old. The tower still captures the spirit of Svaneti. The brothers who built it - Koba and Kakha - are a good source of information on Svaneti. Stop by, climb the tower, check out the pigeons in the roof, and have a chat.www.uncorneredmarket.com/2007/06/a-surprising-feast-in-zu...
