Day 112: Kuadası, Turkey

Day 112: Well the electıon results came ın and the current prıme mınıster the AKP ıs stıll ın power ıt won by around 45% of the votes. After talkıng to quıte a few people they dont belıeve that he ıs an ıslamıc fundamenalıst he has done alot of good for the Turkısh economy, ıt seems he ıs more on the conversatıve sıde than some of the other party members. I thınk the bıg controvery ıs the fact that there ıs a pıcture of hıs wıfe wearıng the ıslamıc headscarf whıch put some people ın an up roar and fearful that secualrısm wıll be takıng away. Went out to Green Beach and Mıll Valley and saw some cool beaches on the Aegean sea you could also see the Greek Islands with the hotel owner on his motorcycle, which was a bit scary as we fell going up one of the hills I came out with just a scraped knee. Kuadasi is a beautiful town on the Agean sea. It was nice to see the cobblestone walkways. Had some of the Turkish ice cream called dodrum it's like regular ice cream but it is thicker quite tastey!!!!
