Still have probs with computers over here, just lost a long note i had written bugger! oh well shouldnt sit in foyer having a wine and talking to others on the tour at same time. Have now had lunch, 3 hour seista and last swim in the med sea. just across road but 2 lane highway with nad drivers and 2 tram tracks before you get there.
Kusidasi in Turkey entertaining to say the least, only there for one day so didnt see much more than the city and surrroundings as we cruised in and out. They certainly know how to hassle, as soon as they know fron NZ they say kia ora, and have all sorts of reason to come into their shops. Didnt buy much other than the normal souveniers and tea towel.
Having a problem with weight both the luggage and ourselves, posted a box of today i think it cost me more than the things inside.
Leave for the airport 6am so have to repack the bag tonight.
Santorini better than i imagined, lot of flat land as well as the steep cliffs, bus zigzags its way up from the port on very small roads, went to top of island 3,000 with septacular views. went wine tasting, they grow their vines on the ground and i cant see they would get a very good crop as everything very dry. water was crystal claer and could see stones on bottom even though way over our heads, still love the way we can just float so easily in the water.
There is just so many WOW moments, so i have heaps of photos and little videos but just cant get them on this computer.
will post this before it dissapears and must get another wine.
cheers
