Wine and Dine
Wednesday, August 4, 2022 The first part of the day is all ours since we don't have to meet for the tour until three. It begins with our landlord delivering a breakfast tray. It's kind of wasted on us since we're really not breakfast people, but the pomegranate juice is lovely, as are the ever-present tomatoes and cucumbers, and coffee is always appreciated. We explore some more and find the restaurant the girls recommended and a tiny little sculpture garden hidden away with no signs or anything! There's a Dunkin' for espresso and latte and we sit outside and talk and people watch, and then decide to check in with Anna at Budget. She seems genuinely pleased to see us. I think we break the monotony of sitting by herself in her tiny little office (she doesn't even have a bathroom!) and Ammar makes her laugh. Paolo Iashvili and Titsian Tabidze, who helped the development of 20th century Georgian poetry These two stopped us and asked if we spoke English. Turn
