Day 4. Rest day

I

We took it very easy today, a long leausurely breakfast of cheese, tomatoes, olives, boiled egg and water melon. We both declined the soft white bread. Lots of Turkish tea with a little milk.

Also time for laundry, everything except what we wear down to the beach will get washed today. A packed lunch from the full moon was essentially the breakfast items as a sandwich and a banana.

Navigation the switchbacks in our sandals but we took our poles all the way down to kabak beach. 

A few of hours of baking with some water aerobics instructed by Sawsan to make sure that we keep our condition.

I actually read enough of "snow" to be grabbed by the novel and some knitting.

The paradox of the bikini and Burkini side by side. 

The Beach was filled with young Turks enjoying their holiday and the beach bar was playing techno and of course there was an iPhone charging station.

The casualty for today was the broken buckle on my sandal, but as Sawsan said a safety pin will work and it does.

W decided to catch the mini bus back up the mountain, as did many other people and it was crammed full almost Indian style. The driver took the switchbacks paying more attention to the young girl next to him than the road.

But we made it back safe. Dropped off above the full moon pansysion.

Looking down on our little bungalow for two nights.

We enjoyed watching the almost full moon rise during dinner.

Also decided to slackpack all the way. Paul can arrange it all and due to a lot of climbing and descending and temp in the 80s it will be more enjoyable for us.

4.5 miles walked on our rest day, according to the Fitbit.

Back on the trail tomorrow and looking forward to it.
