Snowdrop. Look on Kalkan.turkishlocalnews.com as the coast road was closed today because of storm damage.

We drove to Antalya today via the coastal road, here are a few photos we took on the road near Kalkan.
We did have to take a small diversion due to the force of the sea throwing large rocks against the Armco and it ripping from the posts & blocking the road.  :o

Thanks Menthol, I took a lot more but thought these gave a glimpse of what the journey was like.
Back home tomorrow, via the mountain route this time, that could be fun as well  8)
