Will attempt a daily post. Those of you that have already done so will be a hard act to follow!

A little about me and my OH. We've always stayed in hotels up 'till now generally because it's always been just my OH and me - this time 4 friends are joining us so a villa, or in our case a town house seemed to be the best option. In the past we've stayed at the Asfiya (our fav), the new Asfiya Seaview (lovely but no atmosphere), Lykia Residence (lovely but too much interest in what car you drive, what you did for a living - not our style), Serra Boutique, and Yeni Korsan (great - would definitely go back). We're already thinking about next year which so far will be just a week in July when we'll be looking for a 1/2 bedroom place close to the old town.

We arrive in Kalkan on Monday will do my best to post from time to time. :)

I've loved reading all your posts so much.  It's kept me going until our visit in less than a week  :D  I'm so glad that this year's visit was without the stress and worry you went through last year. Looking forward to reading your reports next year!

Hi
Yes I too have really enjoyed reading Joyce's daily blogs .. you've gained fan base !
Especially after your stressful holiday last year, its great that you've both had a lovely holiday.
Kalkan hasn't  felt so far way with your daily updates.
I love my time spent there and even after so many visits over the last few years, we still discovered new things this year.
The other nice thing about Kalkan is the wonderful friends we have made there along the way. Both locals and fellow holiday makers.
I hope I'm lucky enough to go for New Years Eve again this year, as last year was amazing. Otherwise roll on May ..
Best meal for us this year was at the Likya Residence Amazing.
We need to get some out of season bloggers on here to keep us all going..

Janie B we started off at the Serra boutique hotel which started off our love of Kalkan. We used to play dominoes with Verdette and Carlos and loved the bbq nights there. Its now a private villa and mustapha is back in Istanbul. Verdette is the wonderfull poolman and gardener at the Nur apartments. We met him this year and he was really pleased to see us.

Glad you arrived home safe and sound joycie and Bri and thanks again for keeping us so entertained and for sharing your holiday with us. You deserve an award for your daily and joy of joys, sometimes twice daily reports. You don't know how much of a pleasure it's been, logging on every day for the past 3 weeks, knowing there was a humerous joycie report to look forward to. I felt quite deflated until I saw the last few posts from Babs, ratchey, janeb and Alce. I'm so looking forward to your reports guys, don't let us down.  :D
Ps rachey nearly became ratchet a la joycie, but I managed to spot it before posting  ;D

Yes ditto Lizzie thank you so much joycie for your fab reports and your homecoming one was brilliant. It certainly entertained me every day reading them. Babs, ratchey, janeb and Alce have a wonderful time in paradise and if you have just a spare moment would be lovely to hear all about it.

We are excited down in Dorset, we booked our flights for Easter yesterday yeah. Sorry off topic!

Thank you for your lovely comments I really enjoyed doing it. When there was a moment or two  as we went along I always thought ooh I must mention that. Sometimes I could have kicked myself because I'd forgotten some of the lovely things that happened to us. To any potential bloggers just go for it it's fun and gives you a chance to remember wonderful Kalkan.
