Antakya
Barry reminisces...
The channel carved through the mountain by the Romans to transport water
to the local harbor was very impressive. 80 feet deep or so, the tunnel
still carries water today in the carved trough. Amazing. It was also weird
passing bus loads of new soldiers in "civies" out for an excursion
in the country protected by armed uniformed guards with machine guns.
