Quick explore in Antalya for my layover

Our flight to Krakow had a layover in Antalya from 12am to 7am so I had enough time for a quick look around. Spencer decided he wanted to keep a couple extra schengen days so he and ozge were staying which meant they hired a car and we could drive around. Antalya seems like a super wicked spot! It has big mountain ranges and it's on the coast so you can go for a swim at the beach and then go skiing in the same day. We went to a waterfall first, it was huge and super ferocious, it was lit was a huge spotlight and decorated with hundreds of flickering fairy lights which looked so cool in the waterfall mist. There were some really nice stray dogs at the waterfall that I got to play with for a bit too. Next we went and checked out the touristy old town area of antalya which was next to the ocean and surrounded by an ancient fortress wall made in the 2nd century. I think the bay in the old town mustve been a popular old port for pirates back in the day because a lot of the tour boats in the port were pirate themed. There were lots of pubs in the old town and people were cheering, singing and stumbling around the street all drunk which gave the place a nice pirate vibe, like Tortuga from pirates of the Caribbean. The water was super clear, I could see the bottom of the ocean perfectly. I can only imagine how great the scene would've looked during the day with the crystal clear water, the old style wooden pirate boats and the ancient port fortress, the idea of seeing that almost made me stay. Lastly we got some beers and had a quick drink at another beach, it was next to a long Scarborough type foreshore with loads of restaurants and public basketball courts n stuff, it would be a cool place to hang during the day I'm sure.
The taste I got of antalya was awesome and apparently the coast is littered with shipwrecks and fallen planes you can snorkel. I can't wait to go back!

Got to krakow, had an awesome burrata pasta and a focaccia and then had a 16 hour sleep!

We also hung out with the Turkish dudes from dinner again during the day before we left kayseri. We went to a gaming place to play ps4 and a Turkish rummikub place where they provide the rummikub set and then just sell you cordial, idk how they make a living from that but it was cool.Read more
