Dinosaurs and Caves

Near Kutaisi (about 6km away) is a really cool cave. We went on a hike there a few weeks ago with some other volunteers. It was cool, but the electricity was out so the lights they had strung inside didn't work. Amy was the only one smart enough to have brought a small flashlight, so we could see the cave about 2 square feet at a time. It just added to the intrigue. We were taking pictures with a flash and had little idea what we were looking at until the pictures were on the computer.

Adjacent to the cave is the site of some fossilized dinosaur footprints. I thought it was pretty cool that they actually look like you would think dinosaur footprints should look like, not much imagination needed. There is a whole mess of them too.

Even in another country, a true Moniot will find a cave to explore! Now you can come home this summer, knowing you've done what's truly important when in a place other than your home town :) And, very cool dinosaur footprints!
