After breakfast we walked to the Bus Station to get the Dolmus to Gundogan.
The following is from: BodrumLife
Known in antiquity as Farilya, Gundogan rightly claims to have been one of the earliest human settlements on the peninsula as Old Bronze Age ceramics, polished stone axes and milling stones have been found in a nearby cave. This extensive cavern encrusted with stalagmites and stalactites is a natural wonder not to be missed. Yet another fascinating destination for visitors to Gundogan is Big Rabbit Island with its still standing remains of a Byzantine monastic settlement, provisionally dated to the 9th century A.D. Today Gundogan is a quite relaxing place, its touristic facilities surrounding the long bay which is a paradise for swimmers and watersports enthusiasts alike.
We chilled on the boat dock for the day - not many people around - I think because it's the end of summer and the kids have gone back to school. We spent the day, eating and swimming and chilling until about 3.30pm, and then took the Dolmus back to Bodrum.
On the walk back to the hotel, we went to our back street Pizza cafe! It's a fab place, a little out of the way - the owners don't speak English - and it's a pokey little place - but it's fast becoming one of my favorite stops! Had a gorgeous Aubergine and Yogurt appetizer.
At night saw some BBC news about the US financial crisis!!! And the buyout of Merril Lynch. What's going on?
