Christmas music and hot weather
... it is warm, it was like being in a time warp or something.
We went into port with Breaane and Jenny, and we had a lovely day of shopping and good Turkish food. It's interesting to go back to some of these ports that I have been to before because you start to remember certain areas and restaurants. quite interesting actually.
That night, after the gym and dinner we were to go for drinks to say bye ...
Our first Port of Call
... to rain and we saw several "taxis" and used one of them. This taxi was a cart that sat two people and powered by a man riding a bicycle. How lucky it was to find one. It felt like the tires were low on air pressure. Anyway our driver had a sister who worked at a jewelry shop and we would get a discount.

Hamburgers and ribs by the pool side, not a bad lunch.
Not much occurred, and I’m not ...
Turkish Delights
... Scatagories, going to the beach to read some more and walking around Kusadasi.
The walk was really cool, we walked through the city and up to a fortress. Melody pointed out that had we walked the same distance for the same amount of time in NZ before we left we would have been exhausted, and that was our holiday day.
