In Calis its pretty much business as it was before last Friday.
I sat in Sultans in Fethiye today having coffee...my head is still reeling from last weekends gruesome images.
There was a lot of people in Sultans, but it was quiet. People werent chatting much, same on dolmus to and from town.
Peoples heads and hearts are heavy with worry about what happens next I think.
My love affair with Turkey took a big hit last weekend. Im an upbeat positive person but really dont think there's any positives to come from this.
Last night we were on a boat for a friends birthday.
As we watched a stunning sunset, folk dancers, belly dancer and a knife thrower surrounded by stunning scenery I felt sad that there's nowhere else in the world we could be doing that, and nowhere else I would want to be.
We all talked and it was a bit like group therapy, talk of sticking together and enjoying it for as long as we can.
I think like many of us here, Im still trying to catch up on sleep, still reading everything to try and make sense of it and feeling a real helplessness and desperation about all the arrests and whats going to happen next.
I keep thinking how we have freedom of movement and can leave but how terribly sad it must be for all the Turkish secularist supporters.
