Visited the Mosque and tomb of Mervlana the founder of the Sufi and Whirling Dervishes which was just lovely but no photos allowed. Passed through flat farmland and crossed the Mountain Range to the Mediterranean coastal plain which was immediately more humid and the land quite fertile. Passed may crops of citrus, pomegranate, corn, stone fruit, vegetables and cotton which is amazingly all still handpicked here in turkey! Called in to see the ancient Roman amphitheatre of Aspendos which was stunning. Also saw an Aqueduct which are incredible feats of construction. Arrived in the city of Antalya and strolled the Mall before dinner near the main square where Muslim women were protesting in regards to a massacre in Syria they feel is being ignored. Walked home to the sound of the call to prayer again!
