It Moves!!!!

Lee, Kip, and a man who sells coffee in the Temple (!) stick their fingers into a crack at the base of a column of the Temple of Artemis to feel the column gently rocking in the late afternoon wind. Feeling this huge structure moving against your fingers is an amazing and somewhat disconcerting sensation. That these columns have stood for over 1,800 years is truly awe-inspiring.
