Surprise! We had no idea. Ran into our former KH Maintenance trainer couple from NH, Tom & Nancy C. On same flights. Maybe like 20 others Friends too? A guess, so far...

Was an old "Christian" church from like the 13th century, or so. Built on a pagan worship & living area. Interesting site, but we chose not to go up.

Lots of stairs. At least you did not have to try to scale that hughe rock.
