in a foreign land

Travel time: 2 — 9 august 2007
Who does the author recommend the hotel to?: For families with children
Our hotel is quite new, it stands practically in some kind of field, among the old greenhouses, there is no landscape and landscape. Well, okay, we decided not to take the view of the mountains-field and greenhouses, having given $ 20 at the reception, we got a coveted room overlooking the pool and another hotel (the sea is still not visible, at least jump). The worst thing about this hotel is a terribly small area, so small that there is absolutely nowhere to put yourself, animation at the amateur level, thank God there are Russian brothers who will support you and not leave you in any country. Thanks to everyone who stayed with us. Svetik, Tyoma, Luda, Igor and all the rest, if not for them, we would have died of boredom. But we could amuse ourselves with the help of the waiters, who, by a lucky chance, did not become directors, although it was obvious that they really wanted to.
It is very hot in Turkey in August, so all the walks had a very bad effect on our well-being, even at night, when the sun was not hot, it was still very hot, as a result, we went to the nearest village of Konakli 3 times, well, there’s nothing to do there, clothes like on aprashka, they cost twice as much, they are designed for Russians, from the oil outbacks. Do not buy gold in large centers, they will still deceive you, they will sell you in three ways, they will not say the weight, in our jewelry stores it is better, better and cheaper. do not succumb to the persuasion of the Turks. (the purchased chain and bracelet broke on the second day, in Russia their gold is not even accepted with scrap.
Separately, I want to tell you about the excursion on the yacht.

They call a yacht a wooden boat with a motor, old and dirty. When I saw this, I was scared, because for several days there were strong waves. In general, I don’t want to remember, instead of 5 caves there were two, but I didn’t see it, I didn’t care, because for 5 hours I and two other people from our company lay face down on the floor, it’s like a roller coaster, only they end after 5 hours. If you paid $10 for the tour, it’s not so insulting, but if it’s $35 for a person and that $100 for three, then it’s just rudeness, the food is disgusting, the coolest thing about this tour is a pirate who was happy with himself and jumped merrily from the rocks.
In general, the whole holiday can be rated at 4 with a minus, or at 3+, after all, the Turks do not like us very much, maybe we have their service and attitude, respectively. We won't go there again.
