It was the first time we kinda celebrated Bayram / Raya Haji. As it is a big celebration here, J got long holidays too. And so we went to Antalya. It was a good choice as the place is beautiful and the weather is great! I guess pictures worth a thousand words....
Here are some views from the hotel....

Then, we also went to the waterfalls - Selalesi and Duden waterfalls, (with the later, falling to the sea...!) and Kaleici town (where we bought some jams - orange and chestnut).

Though the journey was long and tiring, we had much fun and enjoyed ourselves to the max! Soaking up as much sun as we can and makan as much Turkish food want! It was heavenly! The sights along the Mediterranean seas were breathtaking.... One day, I will be back.... :)
