First Day in Fethiye in 500 words or less
So we had big plans for Monday… go around, lounge around on a beautiful Mediterranean beach, maybe remember to put some sunscreen on. Unlıke in Ephesus. Maybe those masked Koreans were onto something.
Except of course, we get to the beautiful beach and decide to go para-gliding instead.
(Yeah, it was pretty nice.)
Kate coming in for the landing:
We then hung around on the beach with some of the other paragliders - John (a nice normal American) and someone we will call Ganja Boy. Who, when asked what he smokes, replies: “Everything, mon, everything” and had his hair in nice long dreads. Oh, and not to stereotype, but lived in Amsterdam. We had a nice day out with nothing too ridiculous happen (except for the man in the beige colored speedo) but it was beautiful out there.
Eventually, we made our way out of the beach and back to the hostel. Also, Kate might be writing another guest entry! And I really need to upload some more pictures. But, still to come, a tour by boat of up to and maybe including 12 islands! The de-ticking of a dog! More Turkish delight! A ghost town! Getting lost on a hike! And, tomorrow… making our way to Olympos, home of the famous tree-houses.
