There are worse places to live.


There is one week left until the elections.  Twitter is banned which has made even the most anti-twitterer like me feel obliged to sign up to show solidarity. The streets are full of electioneering buses blasting out competing campaign songs which all sound like a nursery class on speed.. BUT.. the weather is fantastic, the beaches are empty, the sky is blue and I can't think of another place I'd rather be.

    And that just about sums it up, perfectly. Life's funny like that, isn't it.

    You've got the right attitude, B to B. And it helps to have such a lovely place to enjoy.

      Hope you enjoy it when you get here - I'm afraid the beaches won't be empty.

      The sky reminded me of tie-dye t-shirts I used to wear.

    Bodrum can certainly do blue skies, can't it. I share your pleasure in the simple things. Nothing's perfect but some things can make you feel they are - just for a little while -and that's pretty good. And why Twitter when you can blog....it all counts! Axxx

    Gosh, that is beautiful! Enjoy it before the tourists come, though I know the area depends on them - an eternal dilemma.

    I get the best of both worlds - here in the off season, then off in the high season

    Gorgeous photos....beautiful blues. Love those Election Buses...I was amazed at all the noise they make and hang out of windows. This was in Izmir a few years ago...it was fascinating to me because here they would have been slapped with a few tickets by the cops for sure. Enjoy before them tourists show up....
