"Problem...problem...problem"

... the 'problem' annoying-english-guy was talking about. Whenever I'd pointed to my picture of the bikes to see if we could take them on the bus, he must have thought I was talking about cycling rather than busing. 'Problem, problem' while pointing at his legs and trying to describe the long hard ride that would have been ahead of us.

Directly at the edge of town there were signs stating the start of a ...

... back in time. Shopping for food is done by road-side stand: honey, olives, mandarins, gourds, and other fruits and vegetables that are locally grown. I think that the oranges i bought were picked that morning. Then the man brings his crate or two to the corner to sell during the day. I got about a dozen oranges for 1 TL and the price was calculated with an old scale with ...

... to say we haven’t required the use of a laxative since we arrived on Kos!

On arrival at the wonderful Kos Marina (if Carlsberg made marinas then they would probably be like this) we were met by the pilot boatman who escorted us to our berth, assisted us to tie up and greeted us like old friends. Then, to cap it all, we discovered that they are still charging the same price (20 euros) that they were in 2007 when we first sailed in here – remarkable.

Ausge-Kos-tet - ein Fazit

... und die Notwendigkeit zum Verlassen der Hotelanlage immer geringer wird?

Es war durchweg sonniges und warmes Wetter, aber es ist bereits Herbst. Wie mag es im Sommer, bei Klimawandel werden - lässt es sich dann noch unter einem Sonnenschirm aushalten? Ansonsten bleiben dann die Touristen weg, denn Pools und Imbissbuden stehen dann weiter im Norden.

Aber vielleicht ist das weder ein Verlust, noch interessiert es die eigentlichen Bewohner der Insel.

... durch das lose Geröll den Fußmarsch lohnen? Ich werde es heute nicht erfahren, sondern genieße auf halbem Wege, den fast Menschenleeren Strand mit kristallklarem Wasser ohne Seegrashaufen. Es gibt zwar keinen Sand, sondern mit Kieseln durchsetztes dunkelgraues Granulat, aber darauf liegt es sich genauso gut.
Das Wasser ist angenehm temperiert und es gibt keine kostenpflichtigen Schirme und Sonnenliegen.

Das neue Zimmer ist zwar nicht der Hit, aber eine deutliche Steigerung, der Urlaub kann beginnen!
Die Wanderschuhe werden angezogen und es geht auf Erkundungstour quer durch die Stadt - hinauf nach Asklepion und zurück.
Asklepion, die Tempelruine, soll eine der größten ihrer Art sein. Es stellt ...

... served us lunch.
What a wonderful lunch!

Back in Bodrum to experience a little bit of night life. While walking the streets of the city, I could hear dance music in the distance. I looked in the direction and saw flickering lights as well. This was a great outdoor night club called Halikarnas based on the ancient mausoleum Halicarnasos. Music was loud and on stage a Turkish male belly dancer.

What a nice day to spend in Bodrum Turkey.
