This will cover 2 day in town, mainly due to the Ute needing some work. Aka NEW SUSPENSION DAY!!!
These are the good days, I had preplanned a few weeks in advance with a shop owner for a new set of ironman suspension, so in the morning, I quickly headed out while Asareh and Suzie went exploring in the city. We picked up some 300kg constant load leaf springs with foam cell shocks. With the car dropped off I stayed around for a chat with a local doctor, who also was getting some work done. He was generous enough to take me out for lunch and explained some local history, like how one statue is only here cause it was to immediately replace Stalin after the fall of the soviet union. Was a good afternoon. Back in the uber now to catch up with Asareh and Suzie.
Now the photos here are a bit in jumbles, so this is the next 2 days pretty much. We covers the art museum, lots of walking around old town as well, cause there are a ton of fine little places for beer/ cocktails. And a bunch more churches.
A main feature was the royal palace, a massive place with stunning artwork. We did try to get into the worlds largest building, the parliament, but that required bookings and we just didn’t have time mainly as it was spread over days when it was not open to tours and of course we do have a slight time frame to get back to Antalya now that Suzie is here.
Finally at 3:30 pm I can pick up the ute on day 2. It took them ages to do the install, but they did all right quality wise, painted everything and all bolts are still tight. But with out anything in the rear she’s riding high.
