Kusadasi

Kusadasi.. Since we'd been here with our tour group last week and explored ancient Ephesus already, we decided to do our own tour today of the port instead. We visited a 17th century Castle from the Ottoman Empire, which was used as a resting inn for travellers on the silk road.. also the sea fortress which we'd seen from our hotel last week but hadn't had time to visit. An unexpected surprise inside was a huge whale skeleton which had been washed up in the 1990's.😲
After running the gauntlet of the local bazaar and coming out unscathed we enjoyed a local Apple tea, and spent a lazy afternoon watching the local fishermen, before setting sail late afternoon to head back to Athens.Leggi altro
