Alexander Nevsky Cathedral...
Some vineyards...
Livadia Palace, the home of the WWII Yalta Conference between Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt. Roosevelt stayed here during the conference...
The views were beautiful.....
This place was so cool.... The Swallow's Nest is a castle perched on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Black Sea. It it also called "The Castle of Love" because it was built in 1912 by a German architect for a girl he loved.
Here we are eating at a little restaurant inside the castle...table for 2 with a view...
We were entertained by a Ukranian harpist during lunch...
Back near the port was a bustling seafront promenade...
View of the seafront and mountains from the port..
That night, our dinner was a "Ukranian BBQ Evening" outside on the pool deck while still in port. We had great food (lamb, pig, risotto, etc.), great entertainment, and great views!
And we're off....to Istanbul....
