Twice Mice

On our penultimate day in Georgia, we visited the walled city of Sighnaghi, now completely reconstructed as a tourist town. For me, the highlight of this town was a little puppy that we called Sluppy. This small chocolate brown dog soon adopted us as we stepped off the bus, and guided us up and down the main street. She showed us the park at the top of the street, and waited for us outside as we perused the shops. She was distracted for a moment when she had to chase a car away, yapping happily, but then she came trotting back up to us, looking proud of her accomplishment. As a reward for her loyalty, we treated her with some salami from the local supermarket, and she happily snapped it all up. Unfortunately, it was soon time for us to get back on the bus, and she watched us with some confusion as we drove away. Soon though we saw her scampering off, with the smug smile of a puppy with a full belly of salami.
