Sophy took me out for ajdaruli khatchpuri which is like a bread boat with cheese topped with a raw egg yolk and butter that you mix together and then dip the bread into. It was pretty good but too salty and very rich. We also had some kind of lemonade mixed with flavored syrups. The chocolate one was too weird for me but the cream was okay. Bryson bought me churchkhela (not pictured) from a street vendor which is walnuts dipped in dried fruit juice which was pretty good! For dinner we had Khinkali which are Georgian dumplings made from a combination of pork and beef with herbs like dill, cilantro, and parsley which was very good!
In a completely unexpected turn of events, I have booked my tickets for Georgia for March 29th-April 6th! I was originally planning on going in May but there is a significant (like $500-2,000) price difference and every flight had a layover in Istanbul. This flight was much cheaper and goes through Amsterdam (I'll wave to Owen's old stomping grounds!) Thank you all for helping make this happen, I am absolutely over the moon!
@grampyfr Happy father's day, you are such a a good grandfather and quasi dad to my dad, can't wait to see you soon!
