Turkey - Bodrum & Ephesus
Bodrum is a beach resort town, just a tiny bit Cancun-like, with its Friday foam parties at the night club and all (no we didn´t go - it was $30 to get in). Bill recovered from his first trip injury at Bodrum - when we were in Kos, Greece, we had rented a scooter to go to the beach. As we were driving on a fairly large road with cars speeding by to pass us, a bee flew INSIDE Bill`s shirt and stung him on his stomach! Bill is feeling better now - I think the beers helped. 
We then went to the town of Selçuk to visit the ancient classical city of Ephesus.
This was the library, built in 135 A.D :
Harbor street - it used to be the sea where the street ends:
2000 year-old public bathroom:
Brothel:
This is the current town mosque in Selçuk:

Can you get me one of those watches? Better yet, grab one from LAX when you return and tell me it's a fake genuine watch from Turkey.
Bill - Can you spare a square?

I wish I was dropping a deuce next to Bill instead of studying.
Pool: I can spare a whole role for you buddy. However the Ephesians were tougher than most -- they just used rocks.
Seolwon: Come on out. They have awesome tequila in Turkey.
Susan: Quit school and come join. Benny will still be pulling in the paychecks.

Hey, do you guys remember seeing "Dewan Carpets" in Seljuk? I bought my "genuine handmade ancient Turkish carpet" there. I think that guy ripped me off. I have a strong suspicion that it was made in China.
