Just spent a happy time looking at some of Antler's posts. I recommend anyone who has not yet been to Kalkan to read through some (they started in 2009). They will certainly have you looking forward to your first visit to Kalkan.
For those of you, like me, who already know and love Kalkan and are looking forward to your next visit then do have a read through (even if you read them the first time) and you will be imagining yourself there, seeing the views and eating the food. It was a real tonic to read some on a grey wet February Sunday in England.
Hope it won't be too long before you are back in Kalkan, Antler, and delighting us with your posts.

He does write a good post!!
Can't wait for June to get back out there, it keeps us going through these dreary wet day dreaming about that first glimpse of Kalkan bay!!

Thank You very much for the comments - you are so kind. I meant every word - Kalkan is gorgeous and what I would give to be there now! But the new job keeps me over-employed and so I spend my time on business trips to Norway, Barcelona and Istanbul instead.
Hopefully be back to Kalkan soon, though,
All the best,
Antler

Dear Antler, we are relying on you for our fix :D :D
-
An Antler special in Istanbul would be a great read :)

Will see what I can do, Jon!!
3 weeks ago there, it was 7 hours in a taxi and a bar of chocolate from the room mini bar!! Hardly Kalkan!!
cheers

I made the mistake of reading my own posts in a lunch break, and before I knew where I was, Mrs A was on Owners Direct booking this cracking house opposite the Market (dead handy for those 38" shorts?) and then Mr ThomsonFly came up trumps with a socialbly timed flight out of Donny. Sorted.
So, August 26th can't come quick enough for our ten day trip to Kalkan. We need our fix.
Now, where is Captain Osman as I need to book Yildiz 2?
Cheers

Hurray, Antler is going back to Kalkan. Some of us have been eagerly waiting for your next visit, Antler, as your blogs are so addictive. Anyone new to this forum should take some time to look back over Antler's posts, especially if you haven't been to Kalkan before. Or if you haven't been to Kalkan for some time his posts will have you wanting to go asap.
Have a wonderful holiday Antler and remember we will be waiting for your postings.

Preparations for August now well underway:
- e-mailed Captain Osman to book a couple of boat trips on Yildiz II, and he confirmed straight back that we are in the diary for Day 2 and Day 7.
- emailed Cafe Leon and booked the "Suprise" dinner for our first Saturday night there; if the food is anything like Jane's packed lunch she did for us to take to the airport, then we should be in for an amazing time - accompanied by Levant's legendary selection of music....
- rang Adam at Adam's Place to get us on his radar, for the lunches and dinners - I can taste the "Saute of Chicken Livers with a hint of Chilli" shortly followed by a stuffed aubergine........
- and of course, spoke to Kitty at Mussakka; which one are we going to try - the new or the old? If I ask for my Table 31, what will I get?! I guess we will try both.......And again.
We still have the trips to Meis and Gocek on the list, which get close to the top each holiday, only to be beaten back by another Vodka and Tonic at Chillis, Cafe's Vita or Leon. Oh, and lunch in Berzigan??
And now, loads of days just to sit back and look forward to all of the above.......
Nice,
Antler

Wahey !!! You're back...so glad to see you ! We are hoping to be back before September so you never know we might bump into you !
-
Now that WOULD be nice, Mrs E K! I'm sure it was your round? LOL!! (Sorry for absence, but the first 4 months of the new job have been demanding to say the least - and achieving KLM Gold Card status in 3 months, was not good at all!!)
So, a few V & T's in Merkez would be well good, eh?
Cheers

Oh, perfect timing Antler! Every year you seem to be in Kalkan just before us and I really enjoy reading your reports to help get me even more excited about our upcoming holiday. We're going on 16th September for two weeks so I'll be reading everything you write while I'm counting the days until we go :)
