ASD WHEN IT'S NOT much to do around, you might decide to bring some friends and visit the cave. It’s easy to get to the cave. You walk through the village, and out on the fields. Half an hour is all you need. But the last part is difficult and you might want to use a stick to balance down the steep track. At the cave, which is a popular tourist attraction we had a very international gathering: A couple of American girls, |
gh some Russians and a Norwegian. It’s freezing cold down at the bottom of tyhe cave. Earlier there was a big lump of ice in the middle, but the global warming have raised the temperature the last years so it has finally vanished. At the entrance the temperature was about 30 degrees Celcius but at once you went innside it decreased rapidly. At the bottom It could not be more than 4-5 degrees. And a difficult track it was. The constant dripping from the roof of the cave made the mud and the rocks very slippery. Then time for some portraits. asdf Well home we decided to take some serious portrait photos of some of the participants of the expedition. It was obvious that their portefolio needed an update due to the nature of this daring expedition. Besides, the girls in Georgia are very beutifull and really deserves being photographed. Then it's ofcourse an honor being the one offering the service. asdf ![]() asdf Here is Manana ... asdfsdf ![]() asdf ....and her friend. asdfsdf |
