Day 65. Çanakkale. 23.4.24

Mark had a bad night coughing and is generally not feeling great so I'm going out solo today.



View of the Dardanelles to the Aegean sea.

The gang -1

















A little town the Allies wanted to take and the Turks defended strongly.

'V' Beach Cemetery. 





Cliff to the right where troops landed.





I left my poppy for the Lieutenant Colonel.

As it was cloudy the shipwreck was hard to see.

On the bus trip back a couple of Turkish tributes.

I really enjoyed walking around the ruins today but unfortunately I think I may now be getting sick.
