March 28

March 28

            Nese took us in her vehicle for a tour of the local area.  She brought along one of her local lady helpers who cleans and cooks occasionally at the guesthouse.  We were also accompanied by a YWAMer from Kazakhstan.
            We saw the Aegean (only about 10 min drive from Selcuk).  There’s quite a long stretch of beach.  We saw Kusadasi, a nearby seaside resort town that seemed heavily commercialized and not all that appealing.  However, we did get to take a stroll past fishing boats along this little walkway out to a small island in the bay with a charming little castle perched on top – certainly the highlight of Kusadasi if you ask me.  We walked around a bit.  The water in the harbor was SO blue and crystal clear.  Beautiful!    But we were glad to be back in Selcuk when the tour was over.
            Visited our children’s worker Canadian friend in the evening.  Went over to her place for cookies, tea, fruit, and baklava.  Had a good chat, watched ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s,’ sipped our special ‘Canadian’ Stash peppermint tea, and enjoyed a restful evening.  It was a regular old-fashioned, typical Canadian-style tea party/casual get together.  Good times.  We prayed together before we left and went straight home to bed.
