Baalbeck

The Roman ruins in Baalbeack were awesome. Way better than I expected and actually quite well preserved considering their age and history. Most of the damage to these particular structures was done by an eartquake in the late 18th Century but they are still remarkable. We had a great guide who got a $US30 tip off me as a result. That was B's fault, I wanted to give him 20.



After finishing in Baalbeck we carried on driving through the Bekaa Valley and stopped at this magnificent restaurant for lunch. The picture was taken because of the fruit on the table. After you have finished your food they re-set the table and adorn it with every type of fruit available. Spot the size of the apples and some of it was fruit I have never seen.
