 TROY
 Ruins of Troy
 Trojan horse. Actual one. Just kidding
 Little Theatre at troy we acted out a little bit of the Iliad and I played the goddess Athena.
 Ice cream in Cannakle
 Assos
 Lumberjackess

 Isn't the ocean beautiful?!
 Remains of Athena's Temple
 houses in Assos
 My favorite part! Our bus stopped on the side of the road and we dipped our toes in the Agean sea.
 Trajan Temple. It is some of the whitest stone from ruins. Rev 2:17




Overlook of Pergamum 


Really steep theatre at Pergamum


Inside where people probably lived or where shops were.




The Asclipen clinic. (The first hospital).



Ephesus




Community toilets!

That's where it went.


Still Ephesus. It's very large.


Theatre at Ephesus Acts 19

Same theatre from a distance


Theatre at Meletus. Site of Paul's farewell.
 Same place


Hierapolis, the capital of Phrygia (Acts 16:6). Where Paul was prompted not to preach.


Natural hot springs.



Very Long bus rides! I sat with Ashton most of the time.


Fifth largest Mosque in the world in Burssa which used to be the capital of Turkey. This staircase is in (I think) every masque.



Something we see out the window. Beautiful bus rides.


Where the council of Nicea took place.


Inside.


Out of our window. There are as many mosques in turkey as LDS chapel's in Provo.


Aya Sofia! Christian church which was turned into a Mosque.



Beautiful Mosaics.


Barowan tent.




This is where thy dye the wool that they spun.



One of their hand-made rugs. They are amazing!


A Barowan school for women. The church donated tables, chairs, and whiteboards.


Barowan town.

Abraham's well. (Not the actual one).


Same place. Where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were from.


Green among all the brown!


I'm in an ancient Israeli temple.



Just a cute picture of Lauren at Arab night.
