Days 544-556, 8-20 Dec 2016, Final Days Fethiye... An Odyssey to Remember. If at first you don't succeed... try, try again. Insanity = doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. Odysseus returning home 20 years after the Trojan War. What, if anything, do these things have in common? And what's it got to do with Maltese postage stamps? The Turkish Postal Service. That's what. Way, way back on 1 December we ordered Malta Passes to u...

Days 534-543, 28 Nov-7 Dec '15, Christmas arrives in Turkey! Calis Beach Christmas Fair. Highlights of the week? Had a checkup at the Dentist, replaced some broken sunglasses and, most importantly, found a fab roast chicken shop in downtown Fethiye. Danced away Wednesday night at the Beach House Restaurant, Calis - all the way until Thursday morning. Positively unheard of. Absolute highlight of the week however was the arrival of Christmas on Sunday. With sun ...

Days 520-533, 14-27 Nov '15, Half Way Through Turkey! The weather has finally broken and rumours of the strength of Fethiye rain have proven true.

Fine weather due again for the foreseeable future in just a couple of days time. Meanwhile we have been making our own fun. Lots of wal...

Days 506-519, 31 Oct-13 Nov '15, Fethiye, Turkey - Where has the time gone? We have taken pottering to a new level over the last couple of weeks and can't believe we've been in Turkey for 3 weeks already - and just another 5 to go until Christmas in Malta. The grounds of our gated community and surrounds continue to reward us with mandarins, oranges, lemons and pomegranates which is fabulous. We even had a neighbour on the door step this morning presenting us ...

Days 504-505, 29-30 Oct '15, Fethiye, Kayakoy, Oludeniz, Tlos, Yakapark, Saklikent Does that sound like a big day? Does the fact I took about 140 photos (prior to deletions) make it sound like a big day? You bet your bottom dollar it was a big day. Due to it being the end of the end of the tourist season, we missed out on taking a group tour to Tlos, Yakapark and Saklikent. The evening we tried to book, was the evening of the last tour. We are currently bless...
