McDull and Darby s blog: Turkey Day 3

Early in the morning at 630am, while Porky was trying to lock his luggage, he realised that he cannot lock it at all. We have tried for quite some time to lock the luggage before we gave up and rushed to our buffet breakfast, as we were going to leave the hotel that morning and we could not go without eating. After eating my breakfast i rushed back to the hotel room ( while the Porky Pig was still eating and "socialising" ) and tried to get hold of our tour guide, who came out with the idea to get a masking tape to tape the luggage. Well it worked, so we used masking tape to tape Porky s luggage and checking in to our bus. It looked funny, but that was the best thing we could do. The incident has invited unwanted attention from a "Gooseberry", and Porky began to chat him warmly on the bus out of "Courtesy".

Then we headed to a leather jacket factory, which the selling price was astonishingly high, a lambskin jacket can cost about 700 Euro, no way we were going to buy it. That s when Porky began his sweet time with the Gooseberry, i began to feel neglected although i was told this is a Honeymoon trip in the beginning.

After the factory visit, we headed to Selcuk, for St Mary s House and Ephesus ancient city, one of the largest archaeological site, whoever reads bible will know this city.

We went to a restaurant for a late lunch and i ate a lot of figs. Fresh and sweet figs of Mediterranean. During stopover, we have also tasted Turkish Pizza with charcoal oven, taste heavenly good.

That night we have reached Lycus River Hotel (the best hotel throughout our Turkey journey) at Pamukkale, in the hotel room i found out that Porky has misplaced some hooks on his luggage and causing the malfunction of lock before our dinner. He just sabotaged himself, not very smart.

We have spent some time enjoyed at the hot thermal pools , where Porky got to spend more hours with his Gooseberry again. My misery continued. :-(
