Kusadasi, Turkey 9/18

After arriving in Izmir from Istanbul by plane, we had to catch a shuttle to Kusadasi.  Here are some pictures from that ride.

Istanbul 9/17 - Salaat (Islamic Prayer)

Ayasofya

Istanbul 9/17 - Outside of Topkapi Palace

I would have loved to have gone inside, but it was kind of pricey to get in and well, we were on a budget and had a month of traveling to go. Gotta pick and choose you know!

Istanbul 9/17 - Archeological Museum

Outside of the museum... Fortune teller bunnies.

Here's a kitty sitting in a tree - K-I-S-S-I-N-G

More Kitties

Sarcophagus. Of who? How the hell would I know? Like I remember! All I know is that it's was for someone in the upper echelon.

And this sarcophagus. Well, this one was for someone in the lower echelon.

Skeletal remains of some peasant.

Another sarcophagus.

Medusa

More Medusa

Empty sarcophagus.

Marble

And more marble.

I have no clue! Anybody?

Trojan horse.

Guess what that is?

Cool tiling

Here kitty, kitty...

Didn't I tell you I saw a lot of kitty's!

I loved this trio! One eyed orange kitty, his adopted sibling behind him, and his adoptive mother to the left holding her protective stance. She hissed at any cat that tried to get near them.
