With a heart ready to move on, I joined a tour group.
I met Patrick Lechat who is from Switzerland and we tried to communicate with my terrible school girl french and his pretty good English. I met another wonderful German man whose wife had passed away only 4 weeks ago.
The tour was wonderful and we visited Myra a Roman City, we had a great boat trip - this is where I met Patrick as he asked me to take his photo. It is so difficult travelling alone as you can't take pics of yourself!
We had pretty disgusting lunch, but a great day.
St. Nicholas (Father Christmas, Baba Noel, Santa Claus). The church has his Sarcophogus in it. Again I was amazed at how close we could get to everything.
A weird thing has happened a couple of times with people assuming I am Russian! Not sure what that is all about. (Big leather boots and a tall hat?) Apparantly its the shape of my face/eyes and the hair colour???
It was a long day but I have to say that it was just what I needed.... To meet lovely kind people, to enjoy the wonderful history of Antalya and the surrounds.
Oh mon dieu! Ma photo ... What a funny swiss face :-O
