Title: The Russians are Coming
Post by: yabanci on June 30, 2017, 08:53:10 AM

Wow, heard of people taking towels from Hotels, but never plants from the gardens.   Not too many coming to Mugla as yet though.

A large ( in every sense of the word) Russian family sat in front of us at the beach early this week. At least I think they were Russian - although my Russian is a a little rusty  ;)

One had a Corbyn hat on anyway! Bit of a giveaway  :)

Certainly either Russian or ex Soviet block.

There are Russian property owners in Calis who have been around for a few years now.  Some rent out to other Russians.

More on the beach at Suat1881 Koca Calis a Beach Bar today. God that's a mouthful  :)

I think a few families are renting the new villas opposite Zenyp's corner shop.

Yes, the Russians are indeed coming.  But thankfully this guy was heading to Antalya:
