Syrian Refugees



On our way to the ancient city of Harran we drove down to the Syrian Border, past the refugee camp where 60,000 Syrians are housed. Over 1 million refugees are in Turkey, it really is a heart wrenching experience to see them and the situation they are in. Little kids came running up to the bus trying to sell us water.
