Think I'd need a holiday after that!

We've just spend 16 days in Calis in May and planned nothing.  Just took each day as it came.  At the end we realised we'd not done much at all,  just relaxing, lazing by the pool or on the beach, walking along the prom into fethiye, eating at different places and meeting  new people, catching up with old friends and a few days out.

We both agreed it was possibly one of the best holidays we've had there and the only 'pull' to come home was being able to see our little grandson again.

When you come home you'll need a holiday.
I can't even stick to a very basic plan, things just develop differently I find.
We often say this trip we must go to a certain restaurant and it doesn't happen.
It took us 8 years to eventually get to the fish market. Since we found it it is now a must go.

We spent 3 weeks in Calis recently and did hardly anything, but had a wonderful time.  Had no plans at all, did think of going to Kalkan, but could not be bothered as we were too busy doing nothing... Came home with batteries charged and already looking forward to our next lazy visit in September.
One thing I would point out in your plans.  Do the Turkish Baths on the first day as it gets rid of all the dead skin and gets you ready for a tan.  Leave it until late and it will scrub off your tan.  :D

I was absolutely shocked to read that, such a lack of flexibility and seeing where life takes us.

Then I remembered, I had every lunch and every dinner planned for our April visit long before we got to Turkey :D

A holiday is doing what YOU want to do when YOU want to do it. That's IF you are on your own. IF you have a partner then YOU have to give due consideration to that person and MUTUALLY agree on where and when you both want to go somewhere.  Take a chill pill and plan nothing and go with the flow.  Regardless of your decision, one thing is guaranteed YOU WILL HAVE A GREAT TIME.    8)    ;)
