Camel Rides224 viewsIn this case the "ride" was limited to sitting on the camel, which remained motionless, and having your picture taken. We would have to wait until we went to Morocco, many years later, to take a real camel ride.

|

Picnic at Kursunlu Park216 viewsWe took a break in a busy day of sightseeing to enjoy a relaxing lunch in Kursunlu Waterfall Nature Park.
|
|

Taking it Easy261 viewsSandie found a spot where she could cat-nap after finishing her lunch.
|
|

Attack of the Feral Felines206 viewsA group of hungry cats prepares to launch a raid on our picnic table.
|
|

Cat People227 viewsChuck and Elouise save the group from the feline onslaught by generously and selflessly sacrificing their own sustenance.
|
|

The Old Mill227 viewsI don't know when this mill was built, most likely not more than a couple of centuries ago; but water wheels have been in use for grinding grain since Roman times.
|
|

The Waterfall271 viewsThe Kursunlu Waterfall is on a tributary of the Aksu, the major river of Antalya Province. We were lucky to see it in springtime; it's reported that it dries to a trickle in the summer.
|
|

No Swimming213 viewsHaving a picnic here by the waterside was also a no-no. But since we had already enjoyed our lunch on the nearby picnic ground provided by the park, it didn't matter to us.
|
|

Pool239 viewsThe waterfall emptied into a beautiful blue-green pool with lush vegetation growing all round - an idyllic scene.
|
|

Beware of Strinking206 viewsWe didn't know what "border" we might be crossing, let alone what "strinking" meant, so it was hard to avoid doing that; nevertheless, we escaped without any dire consequences, although as far as I know we never made it to Geziyolu, whatever and wherever that was.

|

The Falls Again250 viewsWe couldn't get enough pictures of this lovely place.

Sandie at Kursunlu Falls218 viewsThe bizarrely twisted and gnarled trees made a perfect frame for this scene.
