Is that Snow?
90-100 degrees weather, a city void of life, and 10 Burch Fellows Summer Research Seminar students equals a load of fun. Today we arrived in Pamukkale known for their white mountains. What seems to be snow in 100-degree temperature turns out to be calcium deposits. This is where the fun really begins!
After reaching the top of the mountain we chose to swim with the ruins. In the middle of this pool there were ancient columns and ruins right under our feet. It was exhilarating to be able to swim over, under, and around these ancient ruins. Here's a picture of the pool:
After swimming for a while, we decided to visit the rest of the ruins that were not immersed under water. The light was beautiful and the view was stupendous. Check out the link, David's Fledgling, underneath "BIRDS OF A FEATHER, FLOCK TOGETHER" to see an awesome picture of me with the landscape.
Well, the fun really began when we had to change on the side of the 'road' because we did not have our bathing suits on. Here's a G-rated snapshot of David changing in public in the middle of the afternoon. Real classy David.
Looks like snow, eh?

Tomorrow we head off to Egirdir. Who knows what new and exciting things await? Stay tuned for the next episode of The Amazing Journeys of Edward!
