Oh yes, Oh yes! Big fan. Turkey. What a place! The food is good, the people are nice and… well, the livin aint free, but it sure as hell aint expensive! Here’s a place I would like to visit again. The landscape is breathtaking and the climate is perfect. I don’t think our ten days here did it justice. This place definately needs more exploring! We spent a few nights on both sides of Antalya waiting for Nadia to arrive from Germany. This time was essentially spent eating their amazing local cuisine and sampling their local wines. Once Nadia had arrived we swept up along the magnificent coastline towards Greece anchoring behind Islands, diving at the Sunken City and ooing and aaing at the ancient ruins, the sunsets and the niceness of it all. The hardest thing so far has definitely been getting our minds around exactly how blue the Medittirranean is! I will add to this text as soon as I can, but time is a factor at this moment. As follows are a few lines from Nadia: The legroom on SunAir is non-existent which, I concede, makes sense when packing in maximum sun seeking passengers’ eager to escape the pasty atmosphere of a European winter. However, when the average passenger archetype is an over weight, over 65 year old German in Bermudas, less space makes less sense. I take the window seat and accept that I will make no hurried exit whatever the emergency; I refuse all beverages from the cart. Stunned on exiting the terminal, I remember that it can actually be too hot for a jumper and recall all the mistakes I have packed into my suitcase. The taxi is waiting- ship ahoy! I am welcomed with a gin and tonic and my first swim in the Mediterranean. Things to see (apart from Germans ‘en masse’) and do in Turkey: 1.Try the real Turkish delight, which doesn’t contain any of the gross stuff found in the Australian version 2.Find idyllic and/or cliché spots for photo opportunities …Life seems tough on the seas. Enjoy the pics just like I have done over the past months… only now I get to be in them, ha. Nadias
