Datça

What a delightful day we had! ("We" = Robin, Erin, me and of course, the woofer.)  Our morning, including a tasty brunch, was spent exploring Eski Datça (the old town centre) which is now a very pretty area of side streets of souvenir, craft shops and cafes - all bathed in an abundance of bougainvilleas and other colourful trees including of course almond trees for which the area is famous.  

Our afternoon was spent on the beach and swimming in the beautifully sparkling cool and refreshing Aegean on this hot and sunny day (though we left Rufus at home for this activity as there is no shade for him on the beach).

This evening Erin has conjoured a tasty meal which has gone down nicely with a couple of beers. It's fun being away on holiday when you're already on permanent vacation :)

Datça is a port town in southwestern Turkey. It's situated on the narrow Datça Peninsula on the Aegean Sea. Eski Datça is an old neighborhood with stone roads and bougainvillea-covered walls. At the western tip of the peninsula are ancient Greek ruins at Knidos, a trading hub during Roman and Byzantine times. The site includes an amphitheater, a temple to the goddess Aphrodite and a 4th-century B.C. sundial. ― Google
