As planned, Animalcouriers reached the Turkish port of Bodrum this evening but, as we expected, there’s no ferry we can catch tonight. So we have made a reservation on the morning ferry.
Both dogs and couriers enjoyed a promenade along the front, taking in the lovely view across Bodrum bay with its pleasure craft, yachts, and splendid castle.
We’ve found a hotel near the port so will be there bright and early in the morning to give the Turkish officials plenty of time to mull over our paperwork.
You can just spot the silhouette of Kos beyond Bodrum bay
Jasper and Tink admire the view
It certainly is worth drinking in
Tink just loves Jasper’s ‘knock knock’ jokes!
Roxy enjoys the evening sun
Brandy shows his handsome profile…
…then turns to admire the sea view
Reo looks out across the bay
Roxy greets a local
A particularly fine local mosque
Let’s hope the officials are as accommodating tomorrow morning as their town is beautiful tonight. Good luck – your travelers seem to be holding up well!!
Since getting out of the port, they’ve all be considerably happier – the sights, smells and taste are far superior!
What beautiful photos……best of luck tomorrow – here’s hoping for a problem-free day!
Pam
So much better sights for everyone to enjoy!
I think I handle a night in the hotel with those views 🙂 xxxxx
Mollie and Alfie
Yes, we didn’t hear ANY complaints from M&J!
Jasper and Tink look to be having a lot of fun and Brandy looks to be taking all the delays in his stride. Hope it goes well tomorrow – paws crossed!
Thanks Zena – the dogs have really enjoyed the beach walks and all the smells in the port.
I think Roxy needs to enter the tongue contest.
Really lovely sunset (?) shot of the bay…
Yes, we thought so and will file that tongue away 😉 It is a lovely sunset – there’s something about the air and light surrounding those islands.
Lovely pic’s. Godd to hear all is OK xx
Going wonderfully now!
Looks like a lovely place to spend a night – hope it is all a-ok tomorrow!
Thanks Basil. It was lovely for all of them!
Ohhh fun pictures, excuse me while I go pack.
We’ll keep a seat on the beach for you!
Love your photos! Roxy looks just like one of ours. 🙂
Glad you like them! If yours is anything like Roxy, you’re very lucky 😉
The dogs all look fabulous!! I hope all the paperwork is accepted & the journey can continue!! The view & beach are really quite lovely!!
Jasper & Tink are adorable!!! Love the ‘knock knock’ pic!!!
Reo always grinning & Brandy looking manly!!!
Wishing you all a safe journey!
Sherri-Ellen xo
Thanks Sherri-Ellen – they are great characters! Luckily all went smoothly 😉
A happy ending for all especially after the long trip thru Turkey…..lol..sounds like a song doesn’t it????
Bodrum is one of my most favourite Turkish cities and I love your picture with Kos in the distance
Oh, Bodrum was very much enjoyed by couriers J&M – in fact all of Turkey – well, nearly 😉 – has been wonderful.
Some really nice scenic pics and the dogs are looking wonderful. Your photos are so clear and sharp.
Thanks – if there’s good sun then the Blackberries can take some good shots. Great scenery and photogenic dogs help 😉
We’ll as if that Tink isn’t the cutest little munchkin around, and he likes knock-knock jokes too…LOL that’s brilliant. Looks like a pretty good spot to take a wee break. Do the dogs mind salt water?
Tink is a great character and a real sport with Jaspers jokes! The dogs don’t mind the salt water at all but we make sure they don’t drink it as it’s not great for their tummies. We don’t mind the beach walks either 😉
