Nothings better than having a cold drink on the beach!
However, i didnt put enough suntan lotion on so i ended up with a bit of sun burn, nothing major!
After the beach i went shopping in Turkey, in the boiling sun (35degrees). Unfortunately i didnt buy anything as it was too hot to even take time and look around.
Later on that day i decided to take a nap in my room where it was air conditioned and relaxing. As soon as i went to lay my head i looked up and saw a HUGE spider! i couldnt sleep after seeing this, we had to call reception because my dad wasnt even bothered about it being there! Also i rang my brothers who were in another room, i has the feelin they wer too scared to do anything without even seeing the size of this thing! A maid came with a dustpan and brush.....? she had no clue what size this spider was either! We then LOST it and had no idea where it was in the room? (huge fear at this point) I then spotted it on the wall opposite at that point it ran across the wall into the top of the fitted cupboard. Another maid came and ''pretended'' to catch it but was obviously lieing (note: never trust a Turkish hotel maid!) then it didnt appear after a while and i forgot about it then!
That night i went to the room, as soon as i opened the door i has spider webs all over me! Then my mum did as soon as she walked through, at that point i noticed it on the wall!! Then we called another person who worked their who i think was younger than me took a big brush and literally hit it on the wall. I was glad it wasnt their anymore but was still intreged on seeing it in the dustpan!
During the 'fun' 30 days of my Summer i will be taking oppurtunities to collect, create, annotate, and jot certain stories down that have happened for my Sketchbox.

Fantastic Turkish Night! 4.07.10
The third day of my holiday in Turkey was more relaxing as i just sat near the pool in the beautiful sun reading a book, 'My sisters keeper'. However, later on that day we had a tour guide who sold us some amazing holiday excursions. Our first one was a Turkish Night at another resturant, which was fun as there were many more acts and performances to watch and the food was just deliscious. Here are some images of the fantastic acts i saw that night.
Arrival at Caprice Beach...Finally! 3.07.10
As soon as we arrived at the hotel... i went to sleep straight away which unfortunately ruins the holiday and we wasted atleast a whole day! However we still had the night time entertainment at the beach bar which was really good. We had a belly dancer ...i mean come on, its Turkey! Also a Turkish folk dance group performed which was rather interesting as they were traditionally dressed in the Turkish costumes. There was also a Micheal Jackson dancer, who was not all that to be honest but funny to watch.
Airport Adventure 2.07.10
First day of my family holiday!
Absolutely tiring at the airport as we had a 5 hour delay. To past the time we went shopping at duty free as everyone does when they go on holiday! We were on our way to Turkey but didnt reach their until saturday because of the delay. At the airport we sat down and watched the match with a few drinks as this was during the World Cup Season. After the match we went for a bit to eat at the resturant ''Giraffe'' which was lovely as i was starving! This image in the resturant stood out to me and thought it was the highlight of today at the Airport. Unfortunatelyy i didnt take my box with me, but i cut a peice off the top and took it with me.. and every day i wrote a word to sum up that day for me.
