Friends

What a great day!  Friends, colleagues from Istanbul, Odil and Jameson, drove from Kuşadası. to visit for the afternoon and, after a bit of car failure drama, we all - Melissa, Orhan, (me) Robin, Odil, Jameson - and not forgetting Rufus of course - went to Paşa restaurant on the sea front for a particularly delicious and enjoyable mid afternoon meal (lunner? dinunch?) - six Istanbul friends together - such fun.  Eventually, Melissa and Orhan had to leave around 5pm, but the remaining four of us, plus woofer of course, went back to the villa for a couple of hours pool time before Odil and Jameson needed to start their journey home.

Not a great photo, but a wonderful memento of a lovely day, (snapped by Yusuf the waiter on Jameson's phone).
