Day 3 in Izmir

After our almost seven week adventure in Ireland we took off last Saturday for Izmir, Turkey. This is a very charming city on the Gulf of Izmir.

The city has a great boardwalk with fishermen with rods set every 20 yards. Tons of people walking so lots of people watching. Hooray. The food seen here so far has been top class for pennies. I had a nice lunch yesterday. What seemed like a Turkish Burrito and a water for $2.50. 20oz Vanilla Latte $1.50 and dinner for two with bottle of wine and plenty of good stuff to eat $40.
We just pulled the trigger on renting a car so off sightseeing around the country on Friday. I'll miss the people watching but looking forward to getting out of the big City.Read more
