Bergama by Jesse --- Pergamum, Turkey
We arrived in the town of Bergama in the morning and stopped outside a tea store.
Dad got some tea for Rachel, Phoebe and him and then Dad and I looked at the antique store across the road that sold mainly swords from the ancient Turkish, Green and Roman army, many oil laps (as you would see on movies as Aladdin) but they also sold other items.
The people at the tea store worked out that we would be outside and brought the teas straight to the campervan.
When we went in there a few minutes later on the place was over half full of working class men having their morning tea before work.
From there we moved closer into town and on the hill you could see the ruins of an acropolis which is laid out in the museum there which is where we where driving to.
The Museum consisted of the finds of the excavation started in 1878 but stopped for WWI and started again later finishing in 1913 it contains thing from busts of Alexander the Great down to coins on small pottery from the area (the museum was a few dollars each where as the acropolis on the top of the hill was expensive yet only had the skeleton of the place.
The place in important because after winning wars and battles the Greeks used to make an offering to the Gods and after defeating the Galatians and believed that the battle represented the battle of the Gods against the Titans so they created the biggest war offering to the Gods by creating 'The Alter of Zeus' which depicts the mythological battle in Freezes (images carved into stone as part of the wall) around the internal wall of the alter.
The rebuilt version of the Greek alter has been done as part of the excavation and can now be seen in the Berlin Museum (because the archeologist where German).
The place is interest and had lots of information.
On leaving the place we looked at the DVD, and games store nearby that was selling games and DVDs at about 1-5 lira (about $1AUS to one lira)
The town is doesn't have much apart from the museum.

Sometimes, the demands of modern life seem to require an endless supply of energy. It’s hard enough just trying to squeeze everything in, then finding the energy to actually do everything presents a whole other obstacle. Are *YOU* low on natural energy?
When it comes to maintaining your good health, even when we try to eat well, we're still disadvantaged…
The nutritional content of most food has been compromised over the years, not only by deficient soils and modern production, transportation, storage and processing methods, but also by the enormous amounts of chemical and artificial substances added to promote growth, storage life, taste and appearance.
It's for this reason that more and more medical authorities are advocating the use of vitamin and mineral supplements. However, finding them in the right combination can be both confusing and costly.
The best nutrition products I know of make use of knowledge gained from the botanical world's 6,000 year history. They incorporated health building nutritional herbs with the best modern technology to help our bodies cleanse and detoxify so that the cells - the tiniest living units - can be as fully nourished as possible.
This allows the cells to grow, repair and to perform their functions with the best possible efficiency so that we feel and look better and are more able to prevent and fight disease. Once the body begins to clear itself of toxins it can more efficiently absorb nutrition.
