 Day 1 Sunday
We woke up early and went on exciting tour to Turkey. The trip was organized as an activity in a project Erasmus + ,, Together we learn, united we stand''. Our flight was as follows , we flew
- from Warsaw to Istanbul,
-from Istanbul to Antalya,
-from Antalya by bus to our hotel ,, Sonet Apart ''.
Polish team arrived late at night and very tired quickly fell asleep.
Day 2 Monday
The second day started with breakfast, than we went to  Fethiye for some sightseeing. We walked the streets that are used to be very busy during summer holiday. We admired the awesome scenery, especially we were amazed by the view of the sea surrounded by high mountains. We also visited  Fethiye Museum  located off  the main street in the centre of the town, next to a local school.  In the museum there were many Lycian artifacts, some of which were found during the excavations of Fethiye (ancient Telmessos). After visiting the museum we went to have lunch in a local restaurant, where we ordered turkish specials. The day was very interesting , it ended with a late meal in our hotel.

Day 3 Tuesday
We woke up and went to eat the breakfast at 8.30am. Then we took a bus and went to the Ömer Özyer Anatolian High School. We were welcomed by Turkish students and had a chat with them. We also had some free time to look around the school. Then we came back and watched a performance by students and traditional Turkish folklore dance. Later we ate lunch at their school canteen and had some break. Next we went to watch a presentation about Turkish education system. Teachers exchanged gifts. After that we visited lessons and integrated with Turkish students. In the classroom we had an opportunity to talk about our school and region. Our Prezi prezentations were watched and discussed. We came back to the hotel, ate a dinner and spent some time chatting with students from other countries. Some good friendships started and we still keep on chatting via Internet.

Day 4 Wednesday
We woke up at 7.00am and went to eat the breakfast. Then we got on a bus and travelled to the city center and harbour. There was a lot of ships and we boarded at one of them. We had a nice cruise with amazing views. We stopped at some islands. There we could enjoy the scenery and swim in the sea. There was also a lunch  on a ship. Our cruise was 5 hours long. Finally, we came back to our hotel, ate a dinner and went to rooms.

Day 5 Thursday
On Thursday, after breakfast we went on a nice tour to Tlos and Saklikent. Tlos is one of the oldest and most important cities in ancient Likii. It’s laid on the rocky cliff. There are extensive ruins of many buildings from the past and also we can find there the famous tombs of Likii. Then, we saw the Ravine of Saklikent.  It is narrow passageway located near Tlos, very close to the Karacay River as well. It is 18 km long and 300m deep… one of the deepest canyons in the world. There is just beautiful! After this full of emotions day and tour we finally returned to the hotel to rest for a while. The best was this: We could “move back in time” to see and really experience these ancient architectural and nature miracles. I’ll never forget this day!   
Day 6 Friday
On Friday we went to the “Ghost Town” - Kayakoy. Of course people don't call this city "Ghost Town" because there is frightfully. The story begins many years ago when Greeks arrived to this city from Aegean Islands and  stayed there. After the Turkish War of Independence in 1924 about 20 000 of residents stayed forced to vacate their houses. They were forcibly displaced and exiled to the Rhodes Island. In the city survived only two churches, of course we went there and we could experience and admire paintings on the walls and architecture of these buildings.
Then, we went for lunch that was prepared especially for us. We could taste certain kind of traditional pancakes and I bet you… it was outstanding.     
I will never forget Turkish bath at the end of the day. We had everything there… sauna, massages and many different attractions. That was great idea to rest a little bit after long day. Friday was definitely my favorite day!

Day 7 Saturday
On this day, we got up very early to get to Pamukkale -  with its famous limestone terraces. “Pamukkale” can be translated as "Cotton Castle" ("pamuk" is Turkish cotton, "kale" - the castle), and so it looks like this place: from a distance the land resembles white piled wool or cotton, which is something unique and really amazing. Limestone terraces are certainly the real wonder of nature and a gem of the Turkish soil.
How did it come to forming such shapes? It is the effect of mineral water, which comes from the local hot springs. Pamukkale town is in fact located on the place where was the earth's crack. There you can walk barefoot, enjoying  pleasantly warm water. But you should also be careful not to slip and fall into water (what happened to one of us J)
Above Pamukkale there is the ancient city of Hierapolis, which funcioned as a health resort. In the middle you can see the remnants of the temple of Apollo. The priests who lived there, were looking for inspiration in the nearby spring waters called Plutonium.
Day 8
On Sunday we got up very early to catch the flight from Dalaman to Istanbul, and from Istambul to Warsaw. Poland welcomed us with the sun and with unusual for this time of year warm weather. Well, at last we saw the snow on the tops of Turkish mountains ....
