Istanbul is possibly the only city in the world to straddle two continents, Europe and Asia. |
||||
 |
||||
| One of the pleasures of Istanbul is a ride on a ferry all the way up the Bosphorus, towards the Black Sea. | ||||
 |
||||
| The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. | ||||
 |
||||
| The Turkish Band arrives at the Topkapi Museum. | ||||

| Assos was a delightful surprise. It has a cute little harbour at the foot of a tall mountain. Above the harbour there are substantial Roman ruins. | ||||
 |
||||
| Ephusus. The Library of Celcus. | ||||
 |
||||
| The Temple of Hadrian, in Ephesus. | ||||
 |
||||
| The Castle in Bodrum, seen from the East. | ||||
 |
||||
| The tiny fishing village of Gumusluk, on the Bodrum Peninsula. | ||||
 |
||||
| There are numerous boats ready to take visitors for a day long tour of the islands near Fethiye, a town on the Southern Coast of Turkey. Even in late October, the water was pleasantly warm, and we swam in several of the bays. | ||||
