Sumela Monastery is a Greek Orthodox monastery dedicated to the Theotokos located at Karadağ (Greek: Sou Melá, meaning "Black Mountain") within the Pontic Mountains, in the Maçka district of Trabzon Province in modern Turkey.

Nestled in a steep cliff at an altitude of about 1,200 metres (3,900 ft) facing the Altındere valley, it is a site of great historical and cultural significance, as well as a major tourist attraction within Altındere National Park. Due to an increase in rock falls, on 22 September 2015 the monastery was closed to the public for safety reasons for the duration of one year to resolve the problem; this was later extended to three years. It reopened to tourists 25 May 2019. The monastery is one of the most important historic and touristic venues in Trabzon.

probably happy you got out of jerusalem on time

I was referring to the peaceful protests a week or so ago

It costs $1519 on Delta to fly to Marseille.  It costs $1,703 to get to Paris, same airline.

To get to Marseille, you fly through Paris.

It costs $1.,695 to fly to Nice nonstop from here, also on Delta.

I like to say comfortable.

Years back, I drove across the Sierra north of Yosemite through Sonora Pass on a road that had 26% grades.

The unforgettable road to Sonora Pass in California (dangerousroads.org)

It wasn't dangerous, but I recall not being able to see the road at times as the car crested a rise, I had to pull myself up on the steering wheel to look over the hood.  In places, it was just pavement over a rock surface with no grading effort at all.
