Tbilisi: signs, flags etc

Flags and fountains everywhere. People are quite happy with the fountains because they are lovely in hot climate (and actually really helpful). But I`ve heard complains that all that is too expensive for the economy, especially thinking about extremely low social pensions.

Just a sewer manhole in the old town.

The old-fashioned military tailoring shop - in the Old Tbilisi.

City graffiti, no comments

The diplomatic relations with Russia has been stopped today. The Russian embassy in Tbilisi (and the Georgian consulate in Moscow) put their flags down. (quite a bad picture done during the brisk walk in Tbilisi, cuz the guards usually don`t encourage making pictures of such buildings; end of July 2008, still with the flag).
