Borjomi

The first stop on the epic religious pilgrammage was Borjomi, a town famous throughout Georgia for its distinctively strong-tasting (iron? salt?) mineral water. While the religious types caught up with their nun friends, we took a walk through town. 
Here we are, blocking your view of some really awesome murals.
And tasted some of the water right from the source. (Gross. Like, you just bit your tongue really hard and now it tastes like blood, only it's also warm and bubbly.)
I'm only smiling because I haven't actually tasted the water yet.
 Even if its water is kind of nasty (though it's supposed to have magical healing properties...), Borjomi itself is a sweet little town nestled in the mountains. And there were bicyclists!
Bicyclists! Are they insane, foreign, or both?
