Feeling Fantastic in Fethiye

Ciao tutti! We haven’t had internet access for the past few days.  But alas, now that we are in our 30.00 Turkish Lira room per night ($21.75 Canadian) which has a lovely view of the Fethiye harbour, we couldn’t be happier.

The view from our cheap ($21.75 Canadian/night) room in Fethiye. We couldn't ask for more, except for some beer to compliment the lovely sunset. A skip and a jump down the street was a store where we easily acquired some Efes (THE beer for Turkey).

The town is bustling and the mountains and water are so peaceful. Chris is in the process of shaving off most of his beard while I update you guys. I’ve got to admit, I’m excited. Ok, just for kicks, here’s a before shot of Chris with the beard he’s been growing since late December. He even grew out his hair! It’s longer than I’ve ever seen it.

The handsome bearded Chris. Course I think he's handsome no matter what.

Once we’re both showered I think it’s date night on this gorgeous Friday evening. While we’re here, we have lots to update you on like the monuments at Ephesus, eating boar tongue for breakfast, our fabulous new friends Petrit and Gloria who we met in Selcuk, homemade dinner and drinks with friends from around the world (Australia, Italy, Turkey and Canada) and the unforgettable hike we did with Petrit and Gloria through a Turkish National Park where we came down the wrong side of the mountain and ended up 50 kilometers from our hotel. Lastly, check out the map, Chris updated it.
