Lovely Nichola, take note Calis, you need to do something sooner than later, you can see a beautiful sunset sitting here by the fountains too, not just on Calis prom.

HI
Exprıenced the water sychronısed show tonıght and can honestly say ıt ıs worth comıng to lısten to and see.  From what I am seeıng ıs ıt ıs focused on famılıes.  It ıs worth seeıng the chıldren  enjoyıng themselves.

I went last night to the light show and it is well worth the trip.
Its really nice to see some good investment going on in the area, there are lots of small parks springing up. Hopefully they don't just become overgrown dog toilets.

I so love the new dog/cat?? drinking vessels that have appeared along the promenade.

Calıs does not have its own council - so any improvements will be under the general Fethiye area, and looks like the Mayor is ignoring Calıs

Thanks Anne, I did go back armed with tripod to try and get some clearer shots but forgot to remove camera battery from charger before leaving home  so took the opportunity to watch and identify good places to take better shots.

There are some amazing colour changes I didn't see the first time so will go again and try to capture these.

Going back to how the locals feel about the changes I also took the opportunity to have a delicious fish sandwich at Popeye's (highly recommended) and asked them if they liked the show and if it was good for business.

The owner said that before they changed the park the tea house that was just across the way was filled day and night and he got a lot of customers from there and now its gone he has lost all that business. Some how I don't think the people attracted by the shows in the evening will compensate for that lost business as I noticed they were, for now mainly Turkish and they only stayed for about 20 minutes or so before leaving.

That's such a shame for Popeye to lose business. The fish in half bread etc is utterly delicious, nutritious and cheap. I hope it picks up you never know ....

Pff went to fethiye today and decided to say there all day even though we didnt have anything to do.. so we could see the fountains/lights all switched on. Someone  said that they do daily 'shows' at 7pm and 8pm so we were waiting and then asked someone who said 'no, maybe we'll do that at the weekend' -_- so annoying lol. does anyone who lives near there actually figured out a time/day theyre on or is it just random?
