Well arrived back last sat from a wonderful holiday flew from stansted with thomas cook normal flight non eventful first through visa and passport control  bags arrived quite quickly   thomas cook mini bus straight to icmeler no drop offs in marmaris   ,
arrived at golma beach our second visit,  early hours top floor attic room bit miffed until we opened the curtains WOW what a view  rooms could do with update but are cleaned everyday with towels and bedding every other day,we choose this hotel because of the location it is stunning nice beach and no hassle we paid £70 for 11days for aircon,safe and fridge  , we went half board because we got a deal with thomas cook and i must say the food was quite good a selection every night and deserts were lovely , but we dont eat there everynight and enjoyed meals at  erderm, kontes , red lion and a few others
market.... handbags bought were the new hermes white leather £27  bargain chanel £12  now we were asked to buy our sons  VANS  which i must say were all quite good quality  these were approx £15  but we found a shop in marmaris opp point center where they were £ 10  also bought some TOMS these after some haggling were bought for £ 7  , T. SHIRTS the better ones were  3 for twenty pounds,
I had some birthday money and looked around for a nice leather jacket which after 3 days of looking was purchased from choice leather in marmaris for £115  it is a short jacket of the most softest leather i cant wait to wear it ,
we didnt do any trips , but went into marmaris 3 evenings just to see the fountains and WOW what a show on the sunday the water played to loud music in time and the water shot up over 50 feet it was amazing it was lovely to see all the turkish familys and the little children enjoying the display  well worth  a visit,
for evening entertainment we went to RICHARDS , VENICE, FRIENDS  ( SQUARE) KONTES RED LION  and a few others , much the same shows as allways  but it still works we met old and new friends and had some good evenings and a lot of sore heads in the mornings , 
 
we were getting 2.82 lire which was good , 
we spent most days on golma beach  and the weather was very good ,
we got the water taxi back from marmaris which is as always the best way to travel 10 lire each still good value i think ,
the new square looks lovely and after dinner would have a stroll here before  going onto bars , 
also bought  thomas sabo necklace from MY SILVER  chambala braclets  designer mirror compacts  and silk designer scarfs well thats my christmas shopping done lol 
the canal looks nice but is missing its sparkle no atmosphere such a shame i used to love it here , 
we had a night flight coming back and the golma had no rooms to book so not such a good end as we were very hot and had to  use a shower room with no aircon and wait around in the evening in reception although we ended up around the pool as it was a bit cooler  all in all another wonderful time in icmeler and cant wait for next years this is our 9 th time and will never tire of the place lovely meeting up turkish friends we have made over the years ,
a big hello to maggie21 and clive and lynne and pat and julie and steve  new friends met  see you all next year,
