flying high

After trips to Ephesus and Pamukale, we reached Oludeniz on the coast.

 Yesterday we went on an intrepid hike during the mid day sun to a Greek ghost town over the other side of the mountain. The hike was very hot and of course hard work but it was definitely worth it as the place we found was massive. After making it back to the camp site and a cold shower, it was time to cook dinner. We had an amazing lamb spit roast. It tasted great but probably only because of the hours of blood, sweat and constant rotating off the spit. The nearby town was touristy and full of Brits, therefore there was a karaoke bar. The majority of the truck landed there for the night, there were a few interesting renditions to say the least.

 The following day we spent quite a few hours on a boat cruise. And after swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing out way around the coast, we went flying! Can you think of anything more relaxing that running off a 2000m high cliff edge?! Gill and I (and a few of the others) went paragliding which was absolutely amazing! The freedom was great and the views were spectacular. Massive adrenaline rush. The photos really don't do it justice.

 Off to Olympos tomorrow so another long drive day in the sweltering heat!
