Assos

I have a huge backlog of photos to show and stories to tell and limited time to blog in. So have patience with me, please. I will try to take things sort of chronologically from the last few weeks (so I leave Ani and Kars for the time being, having given you a morsel to tempt you with), and a few themes do emerge here and there - but discovering that may take some time and effort... ;-)

This is Assos, a village near our bathing resort in north-western Turkey.



In the distance one could see Greek Lesvos/Mytilini quite clearly in good weather.



Reminiscint of the region's multilayered history, there was both an antique Greek temple and an early Turkish mosque at the top of the hill the village clung on to.
