Today we'll be on a long bus ride to Antalya. On the way we'll cross the Taurus mountains and stop halfway in Konya. It is a major industrial city in central Turkey. We will stop in Konya to visit the Mevlana Museum, which houses artifacts of the Mevlevi Order, also known as the Whirling Dervishes. This must be a very popular museum because it was crowded with visitors. Below are some of the artifacts:

After we Konya we also stopped at an ancient ruin called Aspendos Ruin and Theater

| The Taurus Mountains |
We arrived in Antalya in the evening and checked into the Tuvana Hotel. Unfortunately, they had a wedding reception there that night and the music did not stop until midnight.
