Mini-Moon: Fethiye

On the way to Fethiye!  We decided to drive down through the mountains.  It was an amazing trip though the Taurus Mountain range.   They were steep and craggy, though thankfully there was no snow on the roads.  It was Kurban Bayram, so there were sheep hanging upside down occasionally outside of houses as we drove through villages.

Ok, so today is less of a blog post and more of Fethiye Photo Porn.  We stayed at a boutique hotel right on the water.  It was great, and the views were awesome.  Off season all those swank hotels are very reasonable.  We had a blast! The night before we walked along the water, had dinner at a fish restaurant and took a taxi back because I was too cold to take one more step

The bay was full of boats of all sizes.   In the morning we had breakfast overlooking the water and then had a walk along the marina.

After, we hopped in the car, and headed down the coast to Kalkan…

I grew up in rural New England and in my early twenties I moved to Turkey with my boyfriend. I spent six years learning Turkish, and absorbing the culture and country. In 2015 I repatriated and moved back the the US. My (now) husband and I relocated to Austin, Texas. Our son K joined us in 2017 and I am now on the journey of my life.
