Kisler – Kalkan

We loaded the taxi with our 4 cases and a couple of boxes, filled with foodie bits, essentially provisions that we’ve taken a liking too and weren’t sure that we’d be able to get outside of Antalya, together with some kitchen utensils that we seem to end up buying in every country we land in and then take with us, as we move about. Although we do eat out quite a bit, we also like to cook. We’re living as we would normally, just in different locations. It really is amazing how quickly you adapt and fall into a routine, each different from one location to the other. The pending downpour appeared to have missed us, being replaced instead with “spits and spots” Siam, our driver informed us that the more direct route through the mountains, that we were looking forward to was closed, instead we’d be taking the longer coastal road. The journey itself ended up being a pleasant 3hr trip, with lots to see. We hugged the coastline for about a third of the way, which gave us some great views out across the Med, whilst getting a good look at some small interesting towns. The villa that we’re staying at is in Kisler, which is about 5 minutes from Kalkan, both of which sit within a very pretty bay. I’ve attached a walk around video of the villa, as I normally do, it’s very nice and the views on all 3 floors are very special indeed. We haven’t hired a car yet, but we will next week, instead we’ve been using taxis to get around. There is a farmers market every Thursday, where anyone can go along and pick up incredible fruit, veg and of course spices, so that’s where we went Thursday morning, which was our first foray into town, that we’ll explore later. The weather temperatures are creeping up, but still pleasant and I think that we’ve found a place to swim!
