I LOVE TURKEY!!!

A few weeks ago I joined Walls and 3 of his mates in Turkey where we chartered a 42 ft yacht to sail around for a week. We were on the south coast of Turkey, near the popular tourist town of Fethiye. We had good winds of up to about 15 knots and were able to sail every day. The Turkish were sooo friendly compared to the locals in Croatia last year.

Here is the crew at our last supper






Our crazy Captain Nick










First Mate John aka "Cowboy"










Deck hands Neresa, Rowena and I








Now here are a few of my favourite shots:

And we saw a DOLPHIN and a TURTLE!!!! I was soooo excited that I did not want to leave the dolphin to go get my camera and so we did not get any photos which was a bit sad. But I have the memory firmly in my head so I just can't share it. The dolphin we saw was a Striped dolphin and looks like this:
