Hi Tosh Tosh, thanks for the welcome, you're right it is a fantastic forum and full of good information, hopefully i'll be able to contribute in the future!!
Hi Menthol, we will definitely use the water taxi to Fethiye, I'm sure my wife and daughter will like trying the shops, i'll try and find a nice bar that they can come and meet me at after they'e finished
Just like they do in Calis, they'll go and have a wander and then find me in Joseph's perfectly happy!!
Hi MrT, we did New York a few years ago for a family wedding, stayed in a hotel out in New Jersey, kids loved it doing nothing playing in the pool etc. Stayed in New York for 3 nights on the way back, did all the sights, including the water taxi, and my daughter didn't really enjoy it said she preferred the pool - lesson learnt
