Nothing quite prepares you for the colour of the sea in Turkey, each day when we get to the beach, it fair takes my breathe away. I was desperate to go in and enjoy it’s pleasures but I confess I have never swum before and was not even sure I would be able to float. However mum, who would like to be a mermaid in another life, took me in with her and taught me to swim …… how brilliant is that?

Once I was in, I didn’t want to come out.

However, after a while, my fingers got all pruney and I was pretty soaked through. It appears that I have very absorbent skin and it takes quite a while to get dry, fortunately it’s so hot in Turkey it didn’t take that long!
This has got to be the best holiday ever!

Rather porous are we? I suspected as much. What about the suntan lotion? Does that sink in too or don't you need it?
The sea in the Yucatán is turquoise. I thought they doctored the photos before I saw it for real.
