More Antalya (and food)

Blogspot is being weird so I am making this into two different posts. The pictures below are from today - three different meals. Breakfast, at the bottom, was out on the porch. We had tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley and cheese, meat borek, and french fries. So good. Dinner (middle two) was simple, delicious baked chicken with potatoes, salad, beans with meat, and rice with vegetables. I thought food was over (besides ice cream) but then she made something similar to borek, only with ground meat, cheese, AND tomatoes, and it was FRIED! I really am almost in tears I am so full and I could only manage to eat half of one. I can barely drink tea I am so full.

Today Kubra, Serdar (Sinan's brother) and I went to the beach about 15 minutes away. There was a strong breeze that kept it from being too hot, and almost too cold at times. I was hesitant to get in the water because I hate being wet in the wind but I figured you only get to take a swim in the Mediterranean every so often. We all got really sunburned, and unfortunately I have this "skill" of getting the splotchy-ist sunburns ever. The few spots on my legs make sense, I was hasty with applying sunscreen, but my chest and neck looks like a two year old applied sunscreen. Oh well. I go back to Istanbul tomorrow night, and hopefully tomorrow will be more just hanging around and reading.
