After another multi-vehicle trip involving a minibus, ferry, minibus, ferry, bus and finally another minibus we arrived in Ayvalik - a lovely harbour town backed by old Greek stone houses built into the steep hills. <br><br>This time the climb to find a room was worth it as we tracked down a lovely guesthouse right at the top of a narrow alley with fabulous views down to the mosque and waterfront. Many an hour was spent on the roof terrace over the ...

I ordered the 'beef' which turned out to be liver (ewwww) and then we went for some baklava and a coffee at a pastanesi. The baklava looked nice but tasted horrible. The coffee was served black with a container of powdered milk to pour in to our taste. The weather that had been a pleasant 17 degrees suddenly got very cold ...

... closes down on Sunday, few Greeks attend the three hour Orthodox services and shops are open all Sunday. Another day we find a Hobbit size harbor, a tiny church on a wind swept cliff with lots of tide pools in the sharp volcanic rocks at the base of the cliff.
