Week 8
Tourist attractions, new experiences and whoops a daisy
We’ve had a fantastic week, lots of new experiences, we’ve met some lovely people and been to some amazing sights including:
Dalyan
Panakkale
Efes
Turkey is a beautiful country with lots of mountains and spectacular scenery
We have met some really generous turkish people including the type that invite complete strangers to spend the night with them, others that go out of their way to give you free bread, fruit etc and one family who really wanted to impress us but instead came across as a little bit strange
It was bound to happen sooner or later but I have had my first fall it was not from my bike or alcohol induced I went flying down some marble stairs in Efes – dented my pride and I have a few cuts and bruises.
Tomorrow we set off on the next stage of our adventure we will be heading up the coast to Istanbul (taking in Troy and Gallipoli on the way)
We hope everyone is well and we look forward to hearing from you soon
Full diaries can be found in the usual place, lots of detail so we suggest you grab a drink before you begin
Lots of love Ginette and Gary

- Ginette with her alien glasses at the top of Panakkale, Turkey
- playing in the mud
- Gary in one of the many water pools in Pannakale
- Looks like fluffy clouds or ice but is actually calcium – very strange and beautiful place
It’s great to be following you and really enjoying your updates, this last one brought back memories as you are following in our footsteps of 20+ years ago. Stunning places to visit, but we did it the easy way and flew!! Love to you both xxx
