Wow...Ephesus

















Our next stop on the cruise was Turkey,
and we stopped at the port of Kudashi.
This is the location of the ancient city of
Ephesus. It was thrilling to think we
were walking where the apostle Paul
walked. These are some of the best preserved
ruins in this part of the world. The largest
building was the library, and it looks like
something from a movie set...awesome.
There were a couple of the mosaic floors
still intact, too. Our guide was very proud
of her heritage and enjoyed sharing her
knowledge with us. She encouraged us to
tell others about this archealogical site and
urge them to come and visit. We did sense
a real need everywhere for tourism dollars...
I did my part to boost the economy!
