Flag of Turkey  , Turkish Mediterranean Coast,
Wednesday, June 11, 2008

We made a quick overnight stop in Antalya in order to make a bus connection.  The city has over 700,000 people and is probably one of the more liberal cities in Turkey.  Spaghetti-strap tops seemed to replace the head scarf here.  As we travel about to different areas of the country we are visually reminded at how varied the culture of Turkey is.  If you tried to stereotype the Turk, I suppose you'd be making the same mistake as anywhere else in the world - it isn't easily done.

It was just a quick stop and this is just a quick entry with just a few pictures.  We stayed in a great little place (the best so far) and just passed the evening walking the old part of the city and enjoying the coastal views.

Enjoy!
