We slept in yesterday and walked around the town before our very leisurely 10:30 check out time. From there we drove a couple of hours to Kekova stopping at the birthplace of Santa Claus along the way! The St. Nickolas church and museum was a bit too rich to visit so I took a couple of shots from outside.
Once we got to Kekova, we boarded a boat (I had taken Gravol when we left Antalya) for an over night cruise. The sea was so blue and beautiful, we got to stop a few places to swim. The water had warm and very cold patches so you were constantly swimming to find a warm spot.
Just as we got out of the water the ice cream man arrived, just like the dicky-dee with bells and everything, only he's on a boat not a bike. It was awesome drying in the sun eating a ice cream!
From there we found a calm place and dropped anchor for the night. We had an amazing dinner of hot mezes and fish. We then hung out and played cards until it was dark and time to make out way to the roof of the board to fall asleep under the stars. The stars were amazing. There was some light from the near by port but besides that it was completely clear. You could see the Milky Way and I saw two shooting stars.
Best of all I didn't feel sick at all due to the 12 hour Gavol I bought in Canada. That's magic stuff!
The next morning we were greeted with a great spread of breakfast and more swimming before it was time to head back to the dock.
Once on land we drove the short way to Kas for a free day of sun and shopping. It is so freaking hot here!
I spent the day sunning myself and reading. We had a group dinner at 6:30 and I had the most delicious fresh grilled calamari.
I'm so excited for tomorrow... there are so many highlights on this trip but I'm so looking forward to Pamukkale, and we head there tomorrow!
