Georgia

Most everyone had gone back to the bus when all of a sudden I was treated to tandem Para gliders catching the up drafts of the mountain right in front of me literally at an observation point. .

There were so close I was able to yell at them.

2 separate paragliders in the same photo

It was awesome watching them dive and turn into the wind and out of it floating on the up drafts of the air currents.

This was a mural at the look out point

Para gliders to the left and the right in the photo.

Just when you think the day cannot get any better a second Bride and Groom of the day walks past me going to the look out point. .

Interesting photo of the Bride with her phone in hand when she is surrounded with the beauty of mother nature all around. Where was the groom?

This is the take off point for the para gliders. Trust me it was cold and windy.

Our first glimpse of Mount Kazbek 16,558 feet elevation at its peak while driving..

Valley entering the village of Kazbegi.

The hotel we are staying at, Rooms Hotel Kazbegi, in Kazbegi, officially known as Stepantsminda, at 5,577 feet altitude, in a valley.

A glass of wine, view of the beautiful landscape and ever changing clouds and sky...what a great way to enjoy the late afternoon into the evening.

Surrounded by gigantic mountains the town of Kazbegi is a picturesque settlement . The town and surrounding rugged area provide some of the most picturesque scenes in Georgia.

A telephoto look at Gergeti Trinity Church across the valley on the mountainside.

Reflections in the glass of the hotel...

Continuing reflections in the windows of the hotel. Guests were sitting in front of them and until I mentioned the reflections no one seemd to be paying any attention.
