Ephesus/Selcuk

Our first stop before entering Ephesus,for hats and sunglasses. The incredible Ephesus amphitheatre in the background. This is where the Apostle Paul apparently tried to preach but was shouted down for 2 hours by an angry crowd.
Standing in front of the Ephesus library.
Dad and Zach sitting on ancient toilets. This is where men in togas would have sat for hours chatting and socializing. In the winter months they would have made their slaves sit on the cold marble to warm it up first.
Secret symbol used by the early Christians in Ephesus. It stands for Jesus Christ God Son Savior.
