Gorge, trout and Tlos

[Lindy]

Hi guys, had a good few days, mainly lounging round the pool I confess, we love the town atmosphere, had lunch by the lighthouse tasty and good servings, another meal at Bade, Rich loved the steak so much, today done the Saklikent, Yakapark, and Tlos tour, really enjoyed it the gorge was great the water freezing but then to chill out with a coffee by the river superb! yakapark OK thought I would Like the fish swimming by the bar but they looked abit well worn by the tourists so not a good thing, especially when one made a bid for freedom, or was it a suicide attempt? And Rich scooped it up and put it back in the channel on the bar. A nice setting otherwise, until Rich fell apparently multiple tasking, and now has some classic grazes and bruises, hope this doesn't threaten the market tomorrow and Patara beach Friday. Otherwise all good lazy days watching bougainvillea float across the pool and listen to the haunting sound of the mosque resonate around the bay Bliss !

Hi Lindy.......we enjoyed saklikent and tlos last year and like you, only thought the trout farm was only ok. We stayed for lunch but the trout was not great, it was well overcooked, it looked as if had just been deep fried with the chips. I believe there are many better trout restaurants up there and we shall try them next year. Had some excellent ones in town. In your last post I replied about your little cat, have a look if you get time (eating and drinking better use of time) I would be interested if it was the same one we had. Cheers Ray

Hi Lindy, not at all jealous of you as i sit writing this on a wet afternoon and it's quite dark here as well as it's raining so hard!! Enjoy the rest of it!

Hi Lindy & Rich
A great mix of lounging and exploring!
Hope you had a great day today at the market and enjoy tomorrow at lovely Patara ... the salt water will soothe Rich's bumps and grazes, and the sound of the surf will quiet the soul ... mmmmm

Please keep up your diary posts, (as long as it doesnt interfere with that Kalkan vibe) it's lovely to hear news from a little piece of paradise!

Thanks!
Lori

Hi all,
Thanks for the replies, I will put some photos on when we get home, so Ray you might tell if our little feline friend is the same, she is so cute and loving we give her cat nibbles with a milky chaser, then she jumps on our laps for a big fuss, can't you tell we are missing our cats from home? Rich has some bad bruises and is hobbling abit but managed to make the market, but no pool olympics this afternoon! Just nipped for a drink and pizza at the Samira, very friendly nice pizza and within hobbling distance!, got some great sunset photos tonight, but then you all know these Kalkan sunsets. Bye for now Lindy and hoppy Rich and Minnie mee the cat

Hi Lindy....which apartments did you stay at?

[Lindy]

Hi Ray,
We are staying at villa Lucia it's in-between the samira de lux and the mediteran, Minnie mee as we call her joined us for a BBQ tonight she sat patiently on a drinks trolley while Rich did the man BBQ thing and was rewarded for her patience with chicken and lamb.
She only looks a young cat look out for my pics when we get home.
We went to Patara beach today, we took a picnic with Efes for Rich and Mariachi for me, a lovely beach if you move away from the throngs, and lively waves to play in.
Bye Lindy and Rich

Hi Lindy.............its a different villa and therefore a different Puss. Just sounded like the one we had. We went to Patara a couple of weeks back, lovely beach. We wanted to go fishing down near the ruins but it was so overgrown we couldn't get near to the water so we just had to go back to the pool and an ice cold Efes.........its a hard life. Wish I was there you lucky people. Enjoy. Regards Ray
