We made it to Antalya — a vacation spot on the Mediterranean coast. I’ve realized that packing up and leaving each place makes me tired and wish we were heading home, but arriving in each new city energizes me and I get excited about exploring it.
After a long day of driving back to Ankara, waiting in the airport, and finally arriving at our hotel at 9pm, even though I felt tired all day I got a second wind and we went out exploring and in search of ice cream. It’s much more humid here, Oman humid, and we’re missing our 75 and breezy evenings in Cappadocia. But our hotel is located inside the old city walls and it’s the perfect place to explore on foot.
Now we’re off to bed to rest up for another day of adventure tomorrow. The boys are staying in their own hotel room tonight (in these old restored buildings they don’t have such a thing as adjoining rooms). Heaven help us.
