Carpet weaving and Pergamon

Hey Guys, Ham here,

Yesterday we went to a carpet weaving place where we learned about how the carpets are made and the different types of carpets and prices. The Turkish tradition is to offer visitors a drink and I had a cold apple tea and my dad had a Turkish coffee.

After we travelled 200km to Pergamon, which is an ancient city built on top of a hill. We were able to catch a cable car to the top which was really cool.

These photos show the ruins of Pergamon. It was really windy and cold, but it was interesting.

Today we are travelling by bus to Troy, then we will cross the Dardanelles by ferry to the Galipolli peninsular to begin the final trip to Anzac cove where we will sleep outside overnight until the dawn service tomorrow.

Ham out.
