The joy of living on a peninsula is that there is always somewhere with a sea view to escape from the wind . Today, the normally windy Turgutreis was sheltered enough to sit on the front without jackets. Whenever it gets really cold and wet in Bodrum, you can guarantee good weather will be just around the corner.

What a nice photo.....I've been to Turkey several times but never Bodrum. We always seem to stay in Izmir my husband's home.... This summer I promised myself I would go to Bodrum.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy reading your blog...just found it.
Thanks Erica, Try and make it down to Bodrum and visit some of the villages on the peninsula. Very different to Izmir
DeleteI often pop into Bodrum during the summer months but I really need to go back and visit Turgutreis,which I haven't seen since we left there some 12 years ago..A visit to Gumusluk, our first home, will also be on the cards I think.
ReplyDeleteI think you'll be surprised at how big Turgutreis is now.
ReplyDeleteWe were in Turgutreis a couple of years back. Just for the day while friends were speaking to some yacht owners about work. I prefer Bodrum to Turgutreis but only in winter! I fear Bodrum in summer. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Julia, I'm with you there. I'm only planning to live in Bodrum town in the winter. We're off to the village as soon as the summer crowds arrive.
ReplyDeleteHave yet to walk along Yashi beach. I got as far as Ortakent one day, and took a few photo's from afar. But I'd like to walk along Yahsi beach, and then up over the hill near the lighthouse, and venture on Kargi beach. Next time I'm in the area, I'm going to explore that part of the peninsula a little bit more closely.
