Hadrian Hotel Kas

I open my eyes – all is dark. I rub them – still, no light. Inching forward, my bini clad head emerges from the mountain of blankets and sleeping bags – there is now some light but also an icy, breathtaking chill. Quickly I dive back into the warm darkness of our nest. My second attempt at getting up is more successful. Determined I scrape the ice off our sleeping bags and shake the water bottle to see if all its content has already gone into the solid aggregate ...

We had a heck of a rainstorm last night in Olympos; but it didn't delay the plan to travel westward on the Med. So, here we are in Kas, a beautiful quiet sleepy town with a yacht basin filled with sailboats.

The hostel is Beautiful. I think the best I have ever stayed in. And the price isn't too bad, although it is the off season. This Might be It- the place I have been looking for. But, of course, it's too early to tell.

... was a saviour waiting for us in the form of an old lady shopkeeper who sat us down and provided us with grapes picked straight from the vine and figs straight from the tree. She's our hero!

After a couple of nights in the shed we headed further along the coast to a far more sophisticated location - our room in Kas was even equipped with BBC News! Kas is beautifully located on the coast and this time we enjoyed it ...

... yellow and green landscapes, I wondered how this picture will look like from a 2000m height.

Upon our arrival to the launching spot, everybody hopped out of the jeep. Each took a different path towards their personal flying adventure! As I throw a quick look across the sloppy peak, I got really overwhelmed with the mixed heaps of adventure seekers and pilots all eagerly getting ready for a taste of the same experience! You can smell the adrenalin ...

... swim. We then moved location to another great swimming spot, where Yusuf decided to go for a dip, despite not being a competent swimmer. Not so bright, but thankfully someone was close by the pull him safely back to the boat. We then upped-anchor and cruised past the sunken city of Simena - unfortunately we weren't allowed to swim or snorkle there though. Next stop: Konya

... I couldn't push the right pedal with my right foot and the small space wouldn't let me get my left foot over so I went rudderless. My paddle had these ridges in the plastic covering so I quickly got blisters (and still have one healing 2 weeks later). Rather than the correct upright seated position I had to adopt a reclining position which made me work a little harder. My balance in the kayak was off as a result, so I often ...

... we are definitely going to miss this! By mid-afternoon it had heated up so after a little sun baking all of us hopped in for a snorkel of swim. It was still bloody cold but if you kept moving it was ok. We tried to follow the anchor line down - i only made it about 4-5m before my ears wouldn't pop but one of the guys Josh made it all the way and surfaced with sand in his hands... We chillaxed for the rest of the arvo - Jimmy took the group ...
