Photos #4: The Journey Between Alexandria Troas and Assos

 From Alexandria Troas to Assos

We were there!!

Finally arrived Troas after driving from Assos. There is no highway connecting between the two places, we have to go on to the smaller country roads.











But we went on ahead to the ship and put out to sea for Assos, intending to take Paul on board there. For having made arrangements in this way, he himself was intending to travel by land. (Acts 20:13)

Paul, during the return leg of the Third Missionary Journey, after arriving from Macedonia to Troas and meeting with the local disciples,  preferred to travel by land, to Assos; whereas the rest of the team went by ship. 

It would take him a good 12 hours walking, assuming that he walked by foot, It should be an easy walk, no steep hills.  The scenery is just what we show you in the photos, it is the same, though we were driving from Assos to Troas.
