Gumusluk

We came here on 20th November, and given that the wind is now blowing in excess of 20 knots, we will be staying till it drops. We are in the harbour that was once central to the ancient city of Myndos. There is not too much of it to see, apart from a few bits of wall, that are still visible here and there. We climbed the hill to try and find some remains, but instead found Deniz, and her friend with a kite. She was kind enough to lend us the kite, and take some photos. We were able to get a good view of Rabbit Island, which is in the entrance to the harbour. You can still see the old causeway that led out there, and it is good idea not to try sailing over it! On our way down the hill, we saw another tortoise, although this one was in the middle of lunch, and quite camera-shy.

Ashore, there are a couple of shops, and (apparently) 23 restaurants. Another place that we are sseing in a very different state to how it must be in summer. Our first two days here were hot and fine, so there were quite a few sunbathers out. Today the wind has driven them all into one or other of the 23 hostelries.
