Flag of Turkey Selcuk, Turkey
Friday, May 5, 2006

So after Istanbul we made our way by bus to a town called Kusadasi (a tourist trap that we didn't stay in, instead going to a small town called Selcuk). On James Birthday we went to the phenomenal ruins of Ephesus. I'll just give a sampling of the 85 pics that we took there, keep in mind that we're mostly over the picture taking thing. We liked the town so much that we stayed 5 days instead on the one we'd planned. We had a chance to see Turkish oil wrestling which was held there for the first time. And the weather finally turned. AHH Sun!

Hello from Exciting Aliso Viejo
Nora,
If the irony of my title didn't hit you, let me be a little more clear...You're killin' me! That having been said, keep the photos coming. Love 'em. And by the way, why did you subject your poor children to eating crap in Romania??? In your defense, I must say, at least it was premium crap.
