		<description><![CDATA[We started early for a full day tour of a Roman colony in Turkey, Aphrodisias, dedicated to the goddess, Aphrodite and, at its peak, had 50,000 inhabitants. This, too, was an incredibly large and well preserved site that included many buildings (and parts of buildings &#8211; columns, piers, etc.) and a huge stadium that could [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our stop in the Cyclades was breathtaking and informative. In the morning, we visited the sacred sanctuary of the classical Greeks, Delos, reputedly the birthplace of the twin gods, Artemis and Apollo. We were told that, to preserve the island’s sanctity, no one was allowed to either be born or die there. The ruins, including [...]]]></description>
