Finally made it to Turkey! After 16 hours on a plane/mini bus we arrived at our hotel. A little mishap with some the luggage occurred. We had two different flights from Istanbul to Antayla, we checked in as a group but the lack of English led to all the bags arriving with the later flight rather than half and half. Other than that small mishap, we all arrived safe and sound which is always a plus.
The country looks beautiful from what I have seen. I feel asleep on the flight, it was pitch black when I knocked out and when I woke up it was sunny and the fields were green with a scattering of snow covered mountains. A few hours later we began to get closer to Istanbul and the view from the airplane was breathtaking! The contrast between the mountains vs the suburban area was stunning.
Now getting to the resort we are staying at. It is AMAZING to say the least. We walk in and right away there is free lemonade on the desk facing the doorway. After checking in, we go to our rooms. I am in a triple with two other people. These aren't your normal triple hotel bedrooms. There is only 1 visible bed when you walk into the room. The other two beds are up in a loft kinda area with another bathroom. The view is spectacular as every room has a balcony. The only set back is the internet is really slow and crappy! It took me forever to upload the pictures and post this blog. Hopefully they will sort this problem out. Well it has been a long day and I have a busy day tomorrow. But it does help to know that I will be waking up to this view every morning.
So until the next post I hope everyone a good day and safe week.
