A big, hard but nice day of walking today.
Packed up early, ate my breakfast with Alba and Sergi, and was on my way by 7.30am. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of pack-rest time up my sleeve.

The walk started with a long, steep climb - and good opportunities for photos of the lighthouse.

Walked some sections with Alba and Sergi, and then, after a lunch stop together, they took off, anxious for a swim at Adrasan. Their plan was to walk on an hour or so beyond Adrasan, to cut some time off tomorrow's walk to Olympus. I have decided not to walk that section - it's even bigger than today and my body is screaming for a rest. I will get a ride to Olympus tomorrow and walk on to Cirali from there.
Caught up with A and S on the beach at Adrasan and we had a meal together here at the Blue Bay Motel - the yummiest fish. I decided to stay (70TL B&B) but I walked a couple of kms with Alba and Sergi on the Likya Yolu to the beginning of the first climb. Noticed that all along the river, at the far end of town, there are very interesting-looking pansiyons, accessed by cute bridges. (I wished my guidebook had told me that - although the Blue Bay is very comfortable, with a kind and helpful manager.)
