End Days... on to Rhodes

These photos are unedited, so I immediately apologize for the quality. Right now I'm at the hotel in Rhodes and I'm trying to keep up.

Our final test came and went. My distinct detachment from reality kept me sane. Immediately afterward we hit the Efes. Big family photo time. Then we finally hit the waves, a long held out goal of the semester. Beautiful. At the villa we brought together the whole cast of characters for a final dinner outside. This whole time it was Monique's birthday, so that night we threw down one last time in Apartment 3. With oh so little sleep, we hit the bars around 11. Sky Bar again was the first stop. Monique had 15 drinks that night. At Sky Bar she did this dance with her skirt while she was standing on the table.



I stayed with Andrea and Ayse because Ayse had a thing with bartenders. She kinda likes them and it created problems. Then she lost her purse, and wandering around looking for it at 4 am gave me a real sour last taste for Turks. At least Turkish men. My host family on the other had rocks. The came to see me off from the bus station before I left on this adventure, and gave me a bracelet that I'm still wearing.


Amanda, Arvand, Ayse, Alana, Aerin, and I caught a bus leaving Alanya at 8:30 pm, got to Antalya at 11:30 pm, Marmaris at 5:30 am, and into Rhodes at about 11. We saw the sights yesterday. Today we hired a sailboat to take us around. Lots of fun. DPE boys will get a kick out of some of these.
