Bodrum, Turkey


This beautiful picturesque bay was a perfect place to ride our bikes once again. The wide sidewalks along the shore were lined with fishing boats and large ferries to take tourists to Greek islands close by. We ventured past the many shops that were just opening, to ride right out of town to the next bay. During the height of the tourist season, this place must be packed – there were tons of restaurants, hotels and clubs with hundreds of chairs set up – ready and waiting. This was still a month or two early though, so we had the beach pretty much to ourselves. Everything was pristinely clean and manicured. We decided to each get a haircut at a local shop! Our ride back to the ship took us past a flea market along the coast. The whitewashed shops and homes, together with the bright blue skies and perfect temperature, made this a really special stop!
