Cruising to Kekova

ByTravelling Minion October 24, 2018 2 Comments
Cruising around Kekova From Antalya, we continued our drive through Turkey. Our destination today would be Kas. However, before Kas we'd be spending the day on a boat sailing through the Mediterranean and around the Island of Kekova. It took us about an hour to arrive at the dock, where we grabbed our day bags and boarded the ship. It's a small boat with an open rear seating area, and a top and...

Walking around Cappadocia

Sunrise As a consolation for not having a hot air balloon ride, a few of us decided to wake up for sunset and take some photos of the sunrise in Cappadocia. We got up early and hung out at the top of our hotel terrace to wait for the sun to come up. The light started to appear and we started taking photos. It got a bit chilly and some of us retreated back to our rooms to catch a few more hours of...

We arrived,...

Leaving Okinawa We didn't have anything planned except that we needed to get the car back to the rental company at 2PM. With the morning to kill, we decided to visit a shopping centre. We were halfheartedly shopping since we knew there'd be opportunity to shop later on and didn't want to carry stuff with us for the rest of the trip! Though at the top of the shopping center, we did score a pretty...

Visiting Tokashiki and a Deserted Island

Originally we had planned on visiting a few beaches today. However our AirBNB host had given some suggestions in the guidebook and one was jumping out at us. There was a recommendation for us to visit the Kerama Islands. These were a small set of Islands west of Okinawa and the prospect of snorkeling, diving and possibly visiting a "uninhabited" island was appealing to us. So after a bit of...
