Even at 8 a.m., this peaceful town still was waking up.
I enjoyed sipping my �ay while I sat outside on our pansiyon room�s small terrace. Nearby, I could hear chickens clucking and a rooster crowing every now and then.

The streetview outside of our window. To the right, we could see a bit of the sea too. |
After only four hours of sleep, we quickly showered and wandered down to enjoy our breakfast at Cundahan Konuk Evi. We wanted to explore the island for a bit; then hit the road by noon so we could enjoy some beach time later.
We chose a table near the swimming pool under a very laden nar agaci (pomegranate tree). The owner, �mer Bey, told us maybe another month or bir bu�uk ay before the nar was ready to be picked. This was the first time I�ve seen such a large pomegranate tree upclose!

I would love to have one of these trees in my backyard some day! |
The kahvalti included the normal Turkish breakfast staples such as olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese and bread as well as homemade stuffed squash blossoms, grape leaves and a type of hot b�rek (savory pastry). I assume �mer�s wife, Kamile hanim, made some of the delicious items, as there were two women in the kitchen preparing the food.
A wonderful breakfast to start the day! |
Cundahan Konuk Evi is a colorfully painted, clean and comfortable place to stay. The swimming pool beckoned us, but we didn�t have enough time. Maalesef! It's one of the few hotels on the island that even has a pool.
This would be a fabulous place to relax in the afternoons! |
Our room with a doublebed was painted a light sea-green color. |
We wish we could have stayed another night and explored the island. It�s not very often you stay in a place that makes you feel like home!
G�r�s�r�z!
