Day 4 – Oludeniz

The gallant travelers were up at the crack of dawn, well ok 9am. Up to the terrace for the usual turkey breakfast of cheese and bread set against a magnificent river back drop.
We caught the shuttle bus into town in search of another one bound for Oludeniz. The scenery was breathtaking especially when we came over the hill and spotted the turquoise, crystal waters of the Mediterranean. The shuttle took us down to the beach front and we clambered of the bus with our bags. We were planning to meet up with Nanine and 2 of her friends who had flown in from the US and would be arriving later that day. Luckily we knew the name of the travel agent they booked their cottage though so went of in search of the office. We asked them for some directions and were told we could leave our bags in their office which was great. We donned our bathers, hats and sun cream and headed out to the beach chairs for some serious sun. Ellen and I lapped up the cool water and the lounge side service of slushies and ice coffees.
At about 5pm we went back to the office to check on the arrival of the girls. They had taken our bags up to the cottage already so we were left with little more than beach attire. We had something to eat and hung around until about 8pm and decided we should go up and get some clothes. Felt so bad about crashing the house before the others had got there as we didn’t book it but didn’t have much choice.
We got changed and called the free shuttle to Buzz bar. Managed to squeeze onto a table and got chatting to Nick and Rosie who were traveling from England and had already been in Oludeniz for 12 days!! We got back to the villa about 3am to some empty wine bottles and a couple of ravaged Turkish delight boxes.
