Your walk today...

35c @ 6.15pm. I didn’t sign up for this 😳

…..and warmer still today in Turkey. Nice to be outside in the Sun though. Just means many cold drinks / Ice cream stops 😁

4 mile loop in the 34c heat to visit Marmaris Castle today. Which was really cool ! *Considering we walked around / right on past this when here with the kids 15 years ago 🤦‍♂️

Waiter where we stopped for lunch said: “Temperature is ok today - but will be dangerous for the next two days” 🤣😳

The same as it was yesterday and the day before that and......houses and more housing, a guy carrying a poo bag for his dog
and traffic and more traffic and the smell of carbon monoxide............I was glad to get home
If it's nice tomorrow I could do the same, but this time I could do it anti-clockwise

5 mile walk in 36c heat from Marmaris, Turkey to Icmeler: the next bay along….

Then got the Taxi-boat back in the opposite direction. Walking another 2 miles back to our apartment. But stopping for brunch and many cold drinks this time ☀️

Just shortish local early morning walks this week so nothing much to report..
☀️

Walk from Marmaris to Icmeler. And back again - all via the Coastal path. Seemed a good idea at the time 🤣 Tad warm…..knocking on 40c (?) by 1-2pm. Many liquids were consumed 😁

Maybe 4 miles with the dog in local disused brickpits.
Lots of birdlife audible but not really visible and it's often occurred to me to try to learn about something, anything, while I'm out in the country.
Lots of marbled white butterfly's today so I assume they hatching about this time. Lots of other butterfly's but the damn things don't stay still long enough
Flowers however...
Wild parsnip, looking very tall and colourful

Common Centaury, lovely light pink delicate flowers

Marsh marigolds, lovely yellow buttercup type flowers and Common chickory on the way back.

Dog in one of the ponds...twice. he loved it but curtailed the walk to prevent him getting overheated, very muggy out there.

Many Calories burned on today’s walk.
Which after having Cheesecake for breakfast (No - I never joke regarding Cake 🤣) was definitely a good thing 😁

Round the Marina we walked. First cool breeze in 10 days today. So welcomed !

Came across a semi-interesting BRG car outside one of the Marmaris tat shops as a prop to lure in the Brits 🙄

And back around the other side of the Harbour. Where Roman Abramovic - or at least this Dingy of his: is currently residing.
£1.2 Billion pounds worth supposedly. Looks like plastic mountain with windows. And I’m sure it’s one of many he owns…..

Hot walk. But lovely to be out, upright and alive as always 👍

5.50am.

And with 4.5 miles under the belt already: one of us about to have Coffee and Toast. The other is about to nap I suspect…..

Gorgeous out !! 😍

A daring daylight raid across the Border and into Norfolk; saw us in Great Yarmouth this afternoon…..

Where I walked a few miles:

Took in the Sun and Sea:

But mainly watched my Wife eat a small 🤣 Brown Darby:

Aided by man’s best friend…..

Car said it was 28c on the way home. And I know at the Coast on the East side; was predicted to be one of the cooler parts of the UK today 😳

After a week of 3 & 4 mile local walks, early morning and late evening due to the heat, i got the chance to wander around Dereham while I was supposed to be working..

Unfortunately, I missed the departure of the steam train but did hear the whistle & saw tge smoke as is chuffed away.. 👍

Local walk before it gets too hot for Bonnie.
The nature reserve & nearby fields have quite a bit of shade in the morning so that's where we headed..

Flight time was a but few seconds.. 👍

Then time for a rest but the sludgy pond.

3¼ miles and our longest walk since last week.
