Half way through at WYCC 2009, Antalya

Rounds 3, 4 and 6 I played Nima Fendereski, Mohammad Amin Tabatabaei and Borna Derakhshani all from Iran. It is definitely a very strong contingent. Round 5 was with Anton Smirnov from Australia. Overall I have 5 out of 6 points and still in the hunt.

Our delegation had only two passes until yesterday so it was difficult to get in within first 10 minutes to take pictures. Now we have four so it should be easier to save some memories and share them.

Round 3 with Nima:

Round 5 with Anton:

Free day could not have come at a better time. I am looking forward to do some sight seeing and try some alternate food (maybe a Mcdonald's).

I also took some time to go for a refreshing walk on the beach and around the hotel. Some pictures...
