Lex Libertas

Last summer, I spent five weeks traveling around the Caucasus. One week of that trip was in Georgia. A full travelogue is in the works, but I wanted to capitalize on the news surrounding the recent arrival of American ships in Batumi. The capital of Adjaria (a former break-away province like South Ossetia and Abkhazia), Batumi is a resort city on the Black Sea coast of Georgia. I spent several days both in the city, and traveling around the countryside of Adjaria, and it is stunningly beautiful. Tropical plants and lots of water to swim in, everywhere.

I have an album of pictures set up on locally on Lex Libertas, on Facebook, and on Picasa.

Here are some of my favorities:

Adjaria has some of the most beautiful terrain on Earth

Park at night in the resort town of Batumi, Georgia.

I love Adjaria!! You can go swimming and eat in the same restaurant in the jungle!
