MY VACATION CONTINUED...
This is the whole group sitting on a bench in the center of the city closest to the Ancon Beach where we were staying.  The city's name is Trinidad.  It was declared as a historic site by UNESCO because it is one of the oldest cities in the Caribbean.  It was very bright and beautiful, and ofcourse old.  Most of the building were built in the Colonial style.  Everything is within walking distance, including the cigar shops and the liquor stores.  There are also a couple of streets where people sell crafts and jewelry.
L to R(in back): Gulcin's mum (Ula), Gulcin, Gulcin's Aunt, my mom (Nurshen), Me (Latife).
Sitting down: My little brother Mami and Gulcin's big brother Gurkan.
This is me standing in one of the hotel's gardens.

Gulc and me in her hotel room.
me standing in the cave club.  This is a club actually built in a cave which is inside of a mountain.  It was so Cool!
This is a picture of the stage and outdoor eating area at the resort.  We had nightly entertainment there.  They usually had actors playing skits and dancing, and a live band.
One night they held a Miss Ancon contest which I participated in.  I came in second.  I can't believe they made me kiss a guy's foot and I still came in second!!!
This is an aerial view of Trinidad.  The whole city is surrounded by mountains.
