Jakheti Monastery

I got to go to a very old and very well preserved monastery. There were multiple churches on the grounds and afterwards we had a picnic outside of the gates, where the sunrise was breathtaking! It is the tradition in the Georgian Orthodox church for women to cover their heads when entering the churches, thus my scarf. :)


I did not know how to tie it myself so Goodloe's partner teacher had to help me.
