So.. Here's what I'll be up to for the next 9 days:

Drive to Pamukkale.
26th January: Pamukkale - Antalya
After breakfast, swimming possibilities in Hot Springpool at the Hotel.
Leaving the Hotel to visit the city, Plutonium, Theatre, Bath and Gymnasium.
27th January: Antalya
Full day excursion to Perge- Aspendos , before leaving visit the Old Harbour of Antalya and then continue to the Acropolis of Perge, drive to the City of Aspendos to visit the Agora, The Basilica Fountains, and the Theatre.
28th January: Antalya - Kaş

29th January: Kaş - Fethiye
Departure from the hotel, visit Xanthos, later drive to continue to Fethiye, arrival early in the afternoon and visit the Dead Sea. (you can bet that I will be swimming!)
30th January: Fethiye - Bodrum

31st January: Bodrum – Kuşadası - Izmir
Visit Didyma and then continue to Ephesus Tour visiting the ruins of Ephesus, and The Museum, Virgin Mary. Afternoon drive to Izmir.
01st February: Izmir - Çanakkale
Pergamon Tour, visiting Acropol, Asclepion, Theatre, The Agora and Ancient City of Pergamon.
02nd February ; Çanakkale - Istanbul
The Troy tour, and then crossing Dardanelles by ferryboat and drive to Istanbul Gallipoli to visit the trenches from World War I during the Canakkale War between Turk’s and Anzacs and Allied Powers.
Okay.. does that not sound SUPER packed? I have a feeling that I will want to visit some of these places again and spend more time exploring. I mean.. we cover sooo much in such a little amount of time. If the İstanbul tour was any indication most of the tour will be rush-rush-rush! But I can't wait to see this all. Many of my classmates haven't seen as much of the country as I will see on the two trips (there's one in May that I will go on as well).
See you next month!

I forgot that the Dead Sea was in Turkey. That's so awesome!...except for the rush-rush-rush thing. That's like how it is with my parents. It can get pretty crazy and we ran into this one tourist group that was doing 5 countries in 7 days. Ha. Now that's way too rushed. But have fun!
