Early start again today . First stop a leather factory..... Big mistake!!!!
They do it very well. First we have apple tea, then a fashion show. The models are real models, the jackets are gorgeous. Surprising us all the models come into the crowd and chose from among us to become models for the show. I am one. How glamorous I look in this lovely leather jacket with shorts and sand shoes on! My model is a bit cute and he quickly shows me what we are going to do on the catwalk and away we go. It's fun and funny.
Next we get the explanation of how they make the leather as soft and beautiful and then to the showroom. Wacky wow!!!! Well I scored a gorgeous leather coat that I will be wearing everyday for the rest of my life to justify the price!!! Glenn was tempted a little but resisted the charm of the sales girl.
On our way to Pamukkale via the temple of Aphrodite at Aphrodisias.
This site is lesser known and so attracts less visitors but it is Omers favourite which is evident by his enthusiasm.
It is a very well preserved site and some if the ruins have been re- erected using the original pieces.
It is extremely hot and while it is very interesting everyone is happy and relieved to be back on the bus. One of our group is from Alabama and listening to her talk is very funny, such a southern drawl.. She s travelling with her friend Pat and they are our nearest neighbors on the bus and always good value. On just the second day of the trip, Pat tripped over and hit her face on the ground so she is sporting an impressive black eye and so far that is the only casualty except for the sniffles.
