My family and I woke up late today. We had to hurry to breakfast. The breakfast was bread, tomatoes, yogurt and eggs on the 5th floor of the hotel with a view of the city and the ocean.
we then went out of the hotel and started walking arround. We went to the Grand Bazaar which was sort of bizarre. I was walking by a shop and the man who owned the shop asked me to take a picture of him. So I took the picture and he gave me a key-chain in return!!
Once we left the Bazaar, wew alked up to the Galada bridge and had an outstanding fish sandwhich. Then we walked across the bridge, thinking that we were in Asia, but we were still in Europe.
We saw some really cool shops, but couldn't go in them. We went on a trolley. On it, I was in the back. After that, we caught a bus to get back to the hotel. We stayed there for a while, then we had dinner in a restuarant in the hotel's basement. It was a cave.
