Day 152: Saturday 11th September 2010

Today was a lil bit special as it was Antony's sister's birthday! Nicola was treated to a champagne and cake fuelled breakfast by her lovely boyfriend Richard. Whilst those two celebrated with a trip to the beautiful ruins located near us, me and Antony headed back to Turtle beach to check out the turtle sanctuary where they look after sick turtles.

We saw big turtles...



and lil baby turtles!



We then all went for a surprise meal by the river. The table was covered in balloons, flowers and, er, tinsel (of course). Amazing meal complete with a cake and special singing by the staff. Another picture perfect evening, failed by my rubbish camera *sigh*

Day 151: Friday 10th September 2010

Today was another chilled day where we relaxed by the pool and went into town for more yummy Turkish food. Couldn't help taking a snap of this presentation of authentic Turkish food...complete with the country's favourite gravy of course....



Ahh! Bisto.

Day 150: Thursday 9th September 2010

With Antony not feeling 100% we decided today would be best spent doing sweet F.A so we spent our time sunbathing, dipping in the pool and admiring the views. Does it get any better than that?

Day 149: Wednesday 8th September 2010

Sadly Antony was quite ill last night, but determined not to let it get him down he dragged me, his sister and her partner onto a boat for a day of organised sea fishing. We had a friendly captain who showed us what to do whilst simultaneously acting as a competent wasp killer :)

I caught one fishy and a few crabs, all of which were RELATIVELY large! The captain then barbecued our catch for a yummy seafood dinner. Really lovely day peppered with naps on the edge of the boat.

Day 148: Tuesday 7th September 2010

Today me and Antony took a 40 minute boat ride down the river to see Turtle Beach! Gorgeous beach and home of lots of turtles. Tonight Antony cooked a lovely pasta meal for me and his family as we had a low key evening at the villa.

Day 147: Monday 6th September 2010

We're here! Villa is beautiful, and oddly enough located next to a farm! So we have lots of animal company from goats and chickens hehe. Me and Antony took a stroll around town and got a lovely lunch by the river. In the evening we all headed into town for our first Turkish dinner. Yes I had donner meat- rude not to really.

First picture is of some white sheets blowing in the wind. I'm not gonna lie- I haven't taken a huge amount of photo's this week, I went against my gut feeling and left my fancy camera at home in favour of a crappy old one which takes rubbish photo's... but is small enough to take everywhere.

Day 146: Sunday 5th September 2010

Packing my haggard suitcase.... Gotta leave for the airport at 2am, eek.
