Day 7. Wednesday May 11th



Ephesus: Main Road
Theatre -seated 25,000.  Sting managed 15,000!
Jane again.

If I had to come home now it would all have been worth it, because I've seen Ephesus. Wonderful, wonderful experience.

The Library -reconstructed entry
Yesterday was Troy, which was good, and Pergamum which was better, but I'm in heaven after today. I can't believe all these remains despite lack of preservation. One day they may turn it into a Disney sort of place. Hope not.

choices, choices
Because we aren't on an organised tour we are jumping in and out of tour groups. We've had some excellent guides. And the inevitable trip to a carpet factory 'just to look'. Learned a lot but didn't buy anything. Actually, we are not very lucrative for the locals thus far apart from eating. We have been in such a clear-out mode prior to our departure that neither of us is into acquiring anything except photos and encounters and memories.
