Remains after the fire

Abastumani nunnery is settled in the Old Russian Tsar holiday house. Few years ago, the palace was set under the fire, reasons are yet unknown. Nuns managed to rebuild a little part of the house. The living conditions are not the most comfortable you can guess.

Feeling centuries

A part of one of the oldest fortresses remained in Georgia - Ananuri complex.

We caught 3 little ones, and have let all of them free. A lovely day indeed.

Long boat trip to home

Taken on the way back from Prince's Island to Istanbul. It takes around hour and a half, and is rather tiring if making both ways in a day. Scenery and the islands are gorgeous of course.
