• Arrival back to Antalya

    February 22, 2024 in Turkey ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    So after a lovely few days spent sunning and snorkeling in Sharm we trudged back to antalya. We booked a taxi on booking.com which was half the price of anything we could negotiate ourselves. After a smooth flight we landed in Antalya. We were quite concerned when at passport control they pulled us aside asking for our old expired residency permits. We were supposed to be entering on a 90 day visa after leaving and paying our fine. They took us to the airport police and had us stand outside their office for about 10 minutes. No one spoke to us before they sent us on our way. I have a friend who knows someone who did a visa run and the next time they left the country they had to pay another fine even though they were within their 90 day visa.... We will see if joe and I are put in the same position. Now back in Antalya the weather is about 10 degrees colder and the sun is less bright. Looks like we'll have to wait a month or so for the nice weather here to start showing itself.Read more
