Beautiful Antalya

We've spent the last two weeks in Antalya-- a beautiful city right on the coast of Turkey. I'm not sure we've ever been in such a naturally beautiful place. It's like the Rocky Mountains and the Bahamas all in one (obviously from the picture, though, not as warm as the Bahamas right now!). We've had an encouraging time of seeing old friends and meeting new ones, and getting recharged with a bigger vision for our lives overseas.

Here's the view on one side of our balcony (that's just the beginning of the mountain range rise):
And here's the view from the other side of our balcony:

We have taken a couple of walks down to the beach, which the kids have enjoyed!

Their silly faces say it all--
this has been a good time together as a family in a beautiful place!
