Blog-a-thon Day 9/10 Part D: Turkey - Fethiye and Kas

After leaving Ephesus, we headed south along Turkey's coastline for some beach and sun and spent two days in Fethiye and two days in Kas.  It was nice to relax by the pool and be out on the water and relaxing after so many days full of walking the week before.   The boys all went scuba diving, we all got in lots of reading, took a sea kayak trip, snorkeled and had a great time together.

Red was sad to be leaving the next day.
 
The Last Night in Turkey
Our last night in Turkey we spent in Antalya only because it was near the airport.  We didn't get tons of sleep as unfortunately our hotel in the old city was near a club.  It did however give us a chance to take a pic in front of Club Ally and wish Ally a happy birthday :).  In the morning we parted ways: Red and Doug started their trips back to work in Yuzhno and Astana, respectively, while Natalie, Josh and I headed for Rome for more adventures.  We had a fabulous time exploring Turkey in May and hope to go back someday - there is so much more to see.
