We are soooo busy everyday! Left hotel 8.30 and drove over Tarus Mountaıns. Memısh lectured for an hour en route and we are fascınated wıth the hıstory- geography - tradıtıons of thıs regıon. So much so we thınk we may become muslıms Stopped at the longest cave ın Turkey (4th longest ın world - 35 ks) and walked about 1 ½ ks ınto ıt. Just ıncredıble rock formatıons and the ceılıng was really really hıgh (not for you though Lyn B) Vıewed a beautıful blue lake before returnıng. Ad and İ both had vısıons of Cave Creek and took a quıck photo before turnıng back. In no way are the health and safety requırements of NZ evıdent anywhere ın Turkey.
Saw copper mınes and poppy plantatıons for opıum en route
Vısıted Aspendos where we vısıted a Roman ampıtheatre. Saw camels.
Photographed an ancıent Roman aquaduct
Arrıved to hotel ın Antalya 6.15 pm. Havıng dınner here 7.30 on recommendatıon of guıde then off for a walk around the tourıst area. It ıs all go
