The beach at Akbuk ...



Today we drove to Akbuk - the cliff top road took us through pines, high above the turquoise sea - 

We stopped for Nescafes in a cafe overlooking a sparkling cove - an intricate web of vines shaded us from the sun - the vine tendrils were like delicate corkscrews - 

At Akbuk, fishing boats were moored to ramshackle piers of sun bleached wood. - 

Huge clouds rose above the mountains - 

We swam in the sea, far out into the bay - the clouds cleared - tiny fish darted around our toes -  

We lay on the warm pebbly beach - our eyes were closed - my heart danced within my chest -  

When we got up, small pebbles were stuck to our backs and legs - 

It was as though we had been decorated with smouldering gems -
