I’m a bıg, brave bear!

This has been my motto for this trip. At home, if there is some thing I don’t want to do because I am afraid or nervous, my boyfriend tells me to be a big, brave bear and do it. So I was a little nervous about this trip, but he told me it would be alright and I was a big, brave bear.  This thought came in very handy the other day as we climb up a mountain.  We were in Tlos at the ancient tombs.  There is a fortress at the top of a really high hill.  Being the good GSE team that we are we wanted to see it.  So we headed up the hill to the fortress.  We just kept gong up and up.  The view was spectacular.  You could see the theater, the town and many tombs.  We had a great time at the top and got some great pictures.  It was the coming back down part that I had trouble with.  Did I mention I’m afraid of heights?  So on the way down I chanted my motto over and over again.  My team giggled at me but it worked, I made it down the mountain with no problem.  If you want to know more about Tlos check out this web site:  http://www.lycianturkey.com/lycian_sites/tlos.htm
