Dikili, Turkey June 10, 2014


Dikili, (dee-kee-lee)Turkey June 10, 2014
This resort town has nice beaches and provides access to Pergamum, site of the invention of a sheep skin derived material to replace papyrus from Egypt. The Egyptians had stopped shipment of papyrus for book making in protest over the proliferation of libraries in Turkey rivaling those in Alexandria. We decided to spend time swimming then black to the ship for lunch, Ping Pong and a briefing on Istanbul. Some kind of fish bit our legs, not sure why. Missed lecture on iCloud but got tips on aps and setups for iPad. Went to musical review after dinner, really good singers/dancers.
