It seems most of the old Byzantine buildings have become galleries. They are still interesting shots.

More of the ruins. I liked the contrast with the colour of the sky.

I just like this shot of the old man and boy in the donkey-draw wagon, if not for the other tourists sitting there camcordering it. Of course in their shot I am photographing it.

This is "Sunny Beach", the beach at Nesebur, and "the" place to go for Bulgarian sun-worship. Pretty cheap, so Germans come too.

The meal put out by the woman who hosted us. She is no doubt amused at the tourists who would pay to see her everyday life. our guide explains the food, which almost nobody ate because flies were swarming on it and there wasn't at all room to sit down. They must have misestimated the numbers.

Another old Byzantine church. Nesebur is littered with them, because they believed if they kept building churches, they would avoid bad fortune. Far more than they needed were built.
