Greetings from sea level. Jerod and I started our day wıth a jeep ride to the top of Babadag mountain in Ölü Deniz, Turkey. Babadag, or Father Mountain, peaks at about 6,500 feet. Unfortunately we had only bought one-way tickets up the mountain. Our route down was to strap to the front of an expert para-glider and run off of a cliff. Though less exhilerating than skydiving, the 25 minutes of soaring over the beautiful Mediteranean coast was a pretty good trade-off. Here is what our view looked like:
After being enticed by the aerial view, we spent a good chunk of the afternoon lounging on the white sands and swimming in the Med. It's been a tough day. Tomorrow we will wrap up preps before starting our 300-mile trek. Blogs may get sporadic after tomorrow. Thanks for your patience.
