The Last Day

Our last day of vacation had arrived.

After breakfast we found sun loungers by the pool. We wanted to enjoy the warming rays of the sun one last time before returning to our autumnal home the next day.

We really savored this last day. I floated relaxed on my air mattress in the pool, immersed in my book, completely losing track of time.

The pool day was accompanied by cold drinks from the bar.

My partner also tried the water slide one last time before he left at 10:00 for Boccia, followed directly at 10:30 by darts.

When he returned from his games, he brought fresh coffee, which I decadently enjoyed in the pool.

At lunchtime, we treated ourselves to juicy burgers and pizza with crispy fries while letting our gaze wander over the sparkling sea.

In the afternoon, we went to the beach. One last time feeling the sand under our feet and the salt of the sea on our skin—simply wonderful.

I spent a lot of time in the water again; Gerhard also played Boccia and darts in the afternoon.

Only late in the day did we manage to tear ourselves away from the beach.

After a refreshing shower, we packed our suitcases and went to the restaurant one last time.

After the as always very tasty meal on the terrace, we headed to Avsallar.

We strolled through the brightly lit streets; Avsallar is especially beautiful at night.

A souvenir or two came along as well—you can never have enough keepsakes from a dream vacation, even though the best memories are still those you carry forever in your heart.

Back at the hotel, we went to the bar where the evening show had just begun. Tonight there was a particularly impressive acrobatics show.

After the show, we chatted a bit with our friends before it was time to say goodbye.

The next morning, we were picked up punctually at 7:00. Two hours later, we were at Alanya Airport, where we visited the duty-free shop and grabbed a small bite to eat. This airport is one of the most expensive I know—and I know many. Prices for simple food and drinks are astronomical.

Three hours after takeoff, we landed back home. Another dream vacation had come to an end—but we will come back.
