Travel day in the morning left Malemi hotel at 7 am. Ferry to Avylik from Mytilini a bus to Dikili and then arrived in Bergama late afternoon. Looks like a very cool place. We are located on the main street. Lots of shops and people outside. Some of us went to the museum that houses artifacts from the surrounding area, with emphasis on material from the Ascepion and the acropolis. It is good to see this place as we will go to those places tomorrow. At night the streets are crowded with a lot of people couples, friends family just walking about, music and food all around you.
There is a vibrancy and excitement here that you do not feel in a city street very often in the US
