Meet Garisa and Petra


We had a really quiet day yesterday, as afterall we are so overworked! We had gone to Turkish lessons for foreigners in the morning (as the staff are always trying to teach us some basic words) and in the afternoon we had to supervise the pool area and didn't even have time to check out the seaside.


Come dinner time it was Turkish night. The tables were set out around the pool plus the restaurant verandah area. It takes some effort to get the tables of choice in these circumstances as there are some very pushy Russians who love to elbow there way forward. However, I succeeded and got a table around the pool area and enjoyed a beautiful meal.

Then the Turkish dancers arrived and for half an hour we enjoyed some real Turkish cultural dancing. This was followed by a young belly dancer. Once she had finished her routine she went looking for a couple of "volunteers", and yes, you guessed it - Peter (now known as Petra) and Garey (renamed as Garisa) were the chosen two. Boy did we enjoy laughing!
Sorry we tried to upload a video but not enough connectivity.
