Swimming in Lake Assad

We took a detour on the way back to eat lunch at a large fort on the edge of Lake Assad. Appearing out of nowhere, the lake was formed when the Tabqa dam was built on the Euphrates. We toured around the fort and then ate lunch and went for a swim. 


This way to the fort.

Overlooking the lake.

I love hand painted signs. 




That was my last day in Syria. I'm now back in Los Angeles, and since classes start today this blog will have to return to its regularly scheduled programming. Thus ends the summer of more frequent blogging.
