stay at Bergama We picked up a ride on a local bus (pictured) and then a longer ride to Selcuk. Delighted to find that accomodation had a lovely pool and, to the girls delight, three gorgeous puppies.

One of the most unexpected things about Turkey was the proffusion of wildlife - from the poppies of Galipolli to the masses of wild flowers along the roadside, wild tortoises and storks nesting on ancient viaducts, ant-lions, beetles and bugs - we were amazed by the variety and abundance.Graeme and the girls were in their element taking photos

We have found out about aquaducts at school. In Ancient Civilisations, the Romans used them to transport water to the cities or town.
