Three young men came rushing in to Abkhazi Garden, shouting that there was something on the road; cars were backed up in all directions.

I thought, "Could it be a bomb?"

The men rushed to the office, came out with a bag in hand, and hurried back out to the road.

I thought, "How brave can youth be?"

Time sped by; not a horn beeped, drivers were patient, and the sun shone brightly as the brave men lifted the object I thought to be a bomb and placed it in the bag. Cameras were flashing and people were yelling!

I was shaking as they let me look into the bag: there was the male member of the turtle family out for a walk in the sun - maybe looking for another female to add to his harem!

Three brave lads showed courage at its best.
