Our next port of call was Kusadasi, a popular seaside resort in Turkey and best known for its historical and archaelogical sites. Less than half an hour away is the ancient city of Ephesus, the shrine of the Virgin Mary's house, the ruins of St. John's Basilica and I don't remember what else. Our shore excursion was not organized by the cruise ship. We got it from the internet and we were very happy with the deal we got - a minivan for the four of us with a knowledgeable guide for $50/person for the day with an included lunch. Of course, we had to make sure we get back before sailing time - the ship will gladly leave us behind for not patronizing their shore excursions LOL.

"I find the tattooed back of this tourist more interesting than the ruins." --I'm sure! hahaha! You're more fascinated with the ink, right, bert? I thought so too. :)
USD200 for the 4 of you and van+tourist guide/driver? ayos na deal na yun! kaya lang di ka ata nag enjoy sa ruins? *kidding*
Haha, you got me laughing real hard on that tattoo thing. mas interesting siya kesa sa ruins, haha. I don't understand why she has to flaunt it that way. But then again, it wouldn't be appreciated if she keeps it underneath, righto? Hehe...
Envious!
you are so funny, bertN! i am laughing right now while typing. :D
I bet you found the tattoo design quite facinating. : )
At least the vendor was honest enough to tell prospective buyers his watches are "real" fakes. : D
docgelo, that's what I told my wife but she did not buy it LOL.
sheng,I think body tattoos are there to be seen and appreciated but I do not understand why some of them are located in places that cannot be displayed in public without being arrested for indecent exposure LOL.
bing, my wife said I am a dirty old man with a rich imagination LOL.
BlogusVox, you bet it was! I was hoping to see the rest of the design with the help of gravity.
Tattoos -- living statues -- I had no idea that ruins could be so interesting.
The tattoo! Hahahaha. The Fake Genuine Watches! Hahahaha.
Funny, Sir bertN. Happy Weekend.
Love all the ruin photos. :)
George, didn't know that too.

"I find the tattooed back of this tourist more interesting than the ruins"

You always give me a chuckle with your photo captions - now I wonder if have a tattoo yourself hidden somewhere? :)
I haven't been to this part of Turkey - looks very popular with tourists eh?
The tattoo, the "wanna be" statue, and the genuine fake watches ... too much! Lol!
The historical information must've been exhausting with all those ruins!
