What's up on the olympiads?: Excursion of waiting everywhere in Tbilisi City

This whole excursion started off with an hour of delay. It is not surprising, as for 300 people have to eat and get ready before it, having limited time.

We arrived to the buses a bit late according to the program and the guide was nervous about it. We had to wait a lot in the bus after that, like 20-30 minutes. Meaning we were pretty early after all.

Firstly, we visited a church, where there was a wedding at the moment. It is told to be a popular place to have weddings.

Then we went on with the buses to a little place, wherefrom we were walking. We went through small streets with restaurants and shops. This was the old town, kinda authentic and beautiful.

We saw their glass bridge, where we caused a traffic jam on foot, with 300 people wanting to got through at the same time.

Beside all of this, we were waiting a lot everywhere. We simply had to stop in the middle of squares, streets, anything to wait a bit for something. When we moved together, the walking speed was close to a snail’s speed. The big crowd was moved very chaotically. The basic idea was that each buses’ people stay together around the bus-guide, who has the sign with the number of the bus. And so, there is an order of the buses and they have to go everywhere in this order.

The problem with this was, that we talked to people from other buses. Shame on us, that we know people from other buses, right? And pretty much no one would say like: “Sorry, I will not let ou end your sentence/thought and I will not tell mine, because I have to wait for something about 50m away from here.” So the groups were mixed and the guides did not realize that we are not marching soldiers, but students from around the world who get to know each other.

Finally we went to see a river’s valley with a waterfall, which was the most beautiful thing on the way. And it was in the middle of the city.
