We are two hours away from the little town on the Black Sea coast. We chose here as it is not far. The town is very small, only three hotels, two on the beach, five-six small restaurants. It is a historical small town with lots of old 'konak', old Ottoman-style houses. Some of them have been restored but many are not in use. We arrived here after passing mountain passes and a mountain town where copper mining is the main income. The mountain top was removed and we could see the mine's entrance under the mountain as well. The mountain was a national park with lots of trees, but the mining town had polluted waters running around. The roads are full of curves, not the best. I was breastfeeding most of the trip so that my ears would adjust to the elevation difference. I have had fever the last couple of days, saw the doctor in a private hospital who said I have common cold. In general, I cope well with the weather differences. Here I enjoy the afternoon sun on the beach which was not crowded at all. I enjoyed the children's pool but was afraid of the sea.Wednesday, July 22, 2009
