A pool of our own

Keeping cool at his time of the year is always a problem. We've finally succumbed to a pool. We do prefer to swim in the sea, but by the time you've walked back, you need another dip to cool off again.



So here we are having a refreshing dip

Dragonflies

As we haven't ventured far recently, these dagonflies have been our companions as we shade bathe, trying to keep cool.

Annual clear-up

The Annual clear-up of the park has begun ... this year by two men with strimmers

Street Party

Mustafa, a good friend , invited us to join a street party in Yeşilkent with our Turkish and UK neighbours.

and here's Mustafa showing us how to dance Turkish-style ...

As night wore on, things got sillier ...

But it was a lot of fun and we all had a good time.

Sunset at Mavesehir

Mavişehir night market is now in full swing, and we had a nice relaxing evening shopping in the cool evening breeze, followed by gözleme on the sea-shore watching the sun set.

We have some good sunsets in Yeşilkent too

Holiday Time

With 2nd year uni exams finished, Hayley (our grand-daughter) and her friend Cate came to "chill" in the sun and wind-down.

While they were with us they found plenty to keep themselves entertained. 

They came sailing with us ......

They also did some kneel boarding and water-skiing ....

Cate also enjoyed "driving" Gary's boat ...

We oldies also had to join in ...

They enjoyed one of the local boat trips ...

and enjoyed sampling the local cuisine ...

but all too soon it was time for them to leave, we miss them both.
