The Ageanic Experience

Kusadasi, Turkey


After a long and very deep sleep we left Kucukkuyu for Kusadusi via the Acropolis at Pergamum.

We stayed in a very nice “holiday resort” on the edge of the Adriatic Sea - a quick dip in the morning was very refreshing.

Pergamum is an amazing Roman ruin set high on a mountain - how anyone was ever able to invade this city is beside my comprehension - let alone imagining how they managed to build such a huge place in the first place.

During the day we visited a Turkish Carpet store - for a ‘flying carpet show’ (basically the sales pitch involved giving out drinks of Raki and throwing carpets in the air!!!). I purchased a carpet for Elise and Paul.

Our trip to Kusadusi was long - we arrived after 11pm. With promises of a late start and plenty of free-time the next day there was much drinking of Efes & Raki occurred.
