More Fethiye Harbour Happenings

We had a lovely walk into Fethiye this afternoon and I remembered my camera so I could take a photo of the bridge - or, eventual bridge. Not much happening on it today. It looks like they've filled the edges with concrete so we're presuming that will have to dry before any more progress can be made. I reckon we'll be safely skipping over it in the next couple of weeks though which will put an end to balancing precariously along the wall. Well, we're allowed to be optimistic as it's so early in the year.

This has also appeared. It looks like we're getting another park on the opposite side of the road from the harbour. In true Fethiye fashion, the park has been built but the area around it is still a building site. Should the park not be the last thing to go in...?

It's a nice looking park anyway. I'm sure the kids'll not let a bit of rubble and the odd crane and digger spoil their fun.
We've seen more foundations being marked out today as well - right in front of the Karayolları - and the shapes look very similar to the buildings that are already being built further along the harbour. We're beginning to dare to hope that this stage of the massive Fethiye harbour project might actually be finished at some point this year and we might get a real road / path that we can walk along. Splodging along sloppy 'roads' and scraping mud from our shoes has been a part of daily winter life for the last three years so you'll have to excuse the excitement. We're easy pleased!

Well, we walked into town in t-shirts this afternoon because weather in Fethiye is just so warm. I stumbled across something on BBC's weather website yesterday that said the weather is experiencing a sea saw effect at the moment. The UK is getting Arctic winds from the North which is therefore pushing warmer temperatures to us in the Med. That means we probably won't be able to go to the mountains and play in the snow over the next few weeks (there's very little snow about for this time of year). Oh well, we'll get over it. Warm sunshine it is!
