Disney comes to Koycegiz?
It looks like a giant water slide but is in fact a new part of the irrigation system carrying water down from the mountains to water gardens and groves of oranges and olives here in Koycegiz. Before it went through peoples properties but the company owning it have decided to run it alongside the road.
Very impressed how this team of 10 workmen arrive every morning just before 7 am and pouring cement 10 minutes later. In 5 days they will have built nearly half a mile of waterway. They stop for about 40 minutes for lunch and work hard until 6.30 pm. No slacking here.
Yesterday all the 'bigwigs' (about 20 of them) arrived to inspect it. The downside was that they sacrificed a goat in the path of the work, presumably to give good luck. I am not squeamish, having been raising lambs for meat in the UK and compared to the slaughter methods there this was very barbaric and inhumane.
