Day 29 - Demre

Continuing to use Ucagiz as a base, I finish off a very short stretch of the Lycian Way walk through urban Demre.  I follow the route shown on the iPhone app, through some contemporary light industrial and riverside refuse disposal areas, without seeing any Lycian Way markers.  Then accidentally find some way markers in a location completely different from that shown on the iPhone app.  Ahhh!!!

Then Fiona and I visit the ruins at Myra, where the local speciality seemed to have been carvings of irate people. Then onto the museum at Andriake, which turned out to be shut because of a legal dispute.

Carving of me, after discovering that the route shown on the Lycian Way iPhone app again doesn't match that indicated by the markers on the ground.  

We will leave Ucagiz tomorrow for the three-days-over-a-mountain segment of the Lycian Way.  No pensions, no cafes, no shops; but I'm expecting plenty of goats.  

Today's tortoise count : 1
