'Out of season' in Kalkan...weather etc....5th Nov until 10th Dec...

[onelove]

Hi all,

As promised here is an 'Out of Season' report(s) from Kalkan.

Woke up to cloudy skies but only temp as the sun arrived at approx 10'o Clock, it's now 13:15 and easy warm (hot) enough to sunbath and take a dip in the pool, as the people just below us are doing  . Def shorts & t-shirt weather. Very very light breeze.

We arrived last night and are not going back to the uk until 10th Dec.....lucky us   

Now time to go shopping, then lunch, only problem is where shall we go, Mmmmm, Fener sounds good to me, a safe bet that Never disappoints.

I read on KTLN that there is going to be Lots of road works going on this winter, I will report on this after I have had a chance to investigate. At the end of the Kalamar Road just as it makes a sharp left turn the road works have already begun, the road is been widened, it's good news as ( for those that know this part of Kalamar) it has always been a tight turn, more so when there is traffic coming the other way.

Cheers onelove.

Shorts and t shirt sounds amazing! I was wearing my new fur lined hood 'parka' this morning.....felt quite young and trendy until I discovered the security tag had been left in!

Just had what will probably be the last swim of the season in our pool... refreshing! weather is absolutely gorgeous, temp drops with the sun so by 5pm you do need a sweatshirt / jumper but we have eaten outside each night so far (arrived 2nd Nov )

Thanks for the update.....it's pouring down here!

Just had a lovely meat @ ata, time 18:25, 60tl for 2 of us, both stuffed, sat outside in shorts & t-shirt, just like our waiter

 Brilliant Onelove - thanks for providing me with my Kalkan "fix" 

Freezing cold in Edinburgh this morning - very frosty and -3 degrees 

[brian j p]

7  deg  here in Leeds at  moment,  will probably fall to 2 deg overnight ,  but my soul is warming up rapidly as I read these posts

Just came in (21:25) from my (weird so the wife says !) star gazing hour, still in shorts & t-shirt, Very mild. Now ready to watch Utd.......onelove !

07:10 Wed 6th Nov, Kalamar Bay bathed in sunshine 

[Babs]

I could be changing my mind about out of season posts,they are making me sad!  8.13 and grey clouds and drizzle over Kent!

[DRBD]

Don't worry Babs the early sunshine here in Kalkan has turned cloudy & its blowing hard now, perhaps rain afterall but it's still warm

have to admit I was wrong about the jumper.. ended up discarding it last night and finished the evening sitting out in short sleeves as did Mrs Hobbo.

14:45 local time and we have brilliant Sunshine, albeit, there are a few clouds about, just about to go lie on a sunbed  for a couple of hours

We popped into town for a walk, sat at Coast for a couple of drinks, meet Mr & Mrs Hobbo on their way to Fener for lunch. Coast is staying open during the winter which is Good news. It's Mussakka's last night tonight so we are going there for dinner, another restaurant that Never disappoints.

Ok so after a fabulous lunch at Fener we made our way back to the harbour for an evening at Mussakka, their last evening for the season, for info I was wearing short sleeves and linen trousers, and had just ordered our meals when I was shocked to see onelove upstaging me in his fliplops shorts and tee-shirt. OK he wins!
Great food and great company again, and thanks Peter for the lift back.

I am loving the clothes battle with my morning cuppa , but we all know men are hardy so what are your ladies wearing and we might need to know colours and style

As Hobbo says we had a fab night in Mussakka last night + great company 

Not so bright this morning, 100% cloud cover, but still Very mild. I just felt a spot of rain as I swept the terrace, maybe more rain later

Was out at 08:10 for a walk into town and back. I really don't know what some of the locals think of us, walking dressed in shorts & t-shirt while most of them are dressed for Winter, coats, hats even seen one with a scarf on 

Another walk into town later to go to the market to buy some bits for the kitchen, then a chicken kebab for lunch from the van that parks up opp the market...delish

Thanks for starting this thread onelove. It's certainly keeping me entertained. Just wish I was there to contribute 
Enjoy your time in Kalkan and be sure to keep the updates coming and let us know what life in out of season Kalkan is like.
