Lycian Way: We didn't get lost!



Posted by Max and Elizabeth. Yesterday our two families, the Silverman Wilkes and Scott Rifers (9 people in all) began our six day hike along the Lycian Way. The Lycian Way is a 540 km path along the Mediterranean coast of southern Turkey from Oludeniz to Geyikbayırı. We will cover about 25 km from Faralya to Patara.


Last night over dinner at the Olive Garden (not to be mistaken with the chain in the suburbs of America) we discussed our favorite memories of the first day on the trail. Definitely not to be forgotten.

  • Leo: "I looked in the mirror."
  • Romi: "What did you see?"
  • Leo: "I saw my true love."
  • Caleb: My highlight was making it to two beaches."
  • Noah: "Not getting lost."
  • Caleb: Getting Elizabeth out of the bush."
  • Romi: Making it here safely."
  • Griffin: "Getting 100 percent on my lit paper without reading the book." 
  • Sue: "An amazing view around every corner."
  • Beth: "Pushing ourselves physically and mentally. Watching our children on an amazing hike."
  • Max: "The reward of swimming in the Mediterranean Sea."
  • Elizabeth: "The strong tree that saved my life."
