A few days ago in Priene,

my host was called Issa. He was so welcoming to his restaurant and sculpture tourist business. I felt a quality that befits his name https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_in_Islam

Happy Easter everybody!

Found yesterday: (for 20 TL Turkish Lira, see Xe )

Left in Kuşadasi as a gift (two paintings that i made there):

To wake up under a canopy of birdsong

That later becomes a symphony inside

While once again encountering the world

Here and of yesterdays (in Milete)

The music is the peace,

Under mimosa trees

Near the Menderes (Meander) river delta

And what shall i say about my little friend of yesterday morning?

Priene

Ancient city

There be a new ship coming…

The MSC LIRICA

There is a lot more than cruise ships here. A city replete with small white streets and sometimes wonderful stores. A maize to discover. It’s just that i like looking at the sea…

Stormy weather today

Missed this yesterday: https://www.tourofturkiye.org.tr/#indexTabs1 (cyclists who go fast and far)

But then this unique colourful bird:

And

Kuşadasi seems coloured in Ukranıan colours

First notes played on Saz or Bağlama https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bağlama

Kutsal gün ~ Holy day

Yesterday no new cruiseship. This morning there is a new one lying here

The city of Kuşadasi is very much geared towards tourism. A lot of clothes and carpets and pottery and food of all qualities is available. And i just heard many people come here for the dentists, as it is a lot cheaper than at home and apparently of good quality.

There is a superyacht laying here, the PREDATOR

A new day, a new cruiseship

Even bigger than yesterday’s
