Kizer Visit: Perge

On our second day down south, we hit Perge. It is well preserved and holds Biblical history, as well.

These girls sure had fun together tromping around the ruins.

I had to post this picture. Big Ben noticed Aunt K had a nice camera, and that she took alot of pictures. He crawled up by this rock ruin and called, "Oh, Aunt Boo!" (her nickname) and wanted his picture made.


We found this fun "M" and had to get Firstborn's picture by it. (She is Mary Erin.)

By far, my favorite spot is the ancient game board in the town square. Experts still haven't figured out how the game was played, but it looks very much like games we play today. Only made of rock!


Some folks hiked back to see the church ruins, set apart from the city. This church would have been established after the Biblical passage where Paul split from John Mark.

I waited back with the little 'uns, who were getting a little tired.

The church explorers came across goats and sheep.

And I found a cross.

Goodbye to Perge, until next time.
