Hello from Marmaris.
So reflecting on the past few days, let's start with our departure to the airport on July 6th. Mine had made arrangements through the hotel to have a large van waiting for us at 9:30am to take us to the airport. At 9:45, still no van so Mine phoned the driver to find out he changed his mind. Apparently the hotel wanted too much of a kick back from the driver so he told them he wouldn't come. Unfortunately nobody told us. After some heated discussion in hungarian between the hotel and Mine, we went with plan "B" and flagged down three taxis. Then the race was on to get to the airport. Cut to the end, we made the flight and settled back in our seats for a short 1 hour flight. At this airport there was a nice air conditioned bus which took us to Marmaris.
In Marmaris we arrived at a Restaurant called "The Three Brothers" which also had a B&B operation in the back. We settled into a nice two bedroom apartment, then met with two friends of John and Mine's. Murat and Charlene live in Vancouver but have family here and spend a lot of vacation time in Turkey. Tonight they made arrangements for us to have dinner on a warf over the Mediterranean. During the day this warf is cluttered with lounge chairs and umbrellas for the tourists but in the evening is transformed into an outdoor restaurant. The food again was great and the scenery of course phenomenal. The local drink here is of course Raki. Murat ordered a litre of it for the guys and we managed to make short work of it which assisted us with sleeping in till almost noon the next day.
So for July 7th 8th and 9th here is what we did:
1. Sleep
2. Eat breakfast
3. Go to beach/pool
4. Eat dinner
5. Sleep
6. Repeat
Stayed turned...
