... the next couple of hours!! He knew his way around, obviously.... and I was quite chuffed to have found a 'friend' :) but the cobbled streets eventually defeated him.

The Old Town is the largest preserved medieval settlement in Europe and has been inhabited without interruption down to the present time and is completely enclosed in a thick, 6km long wall. No doubt bits of the wall have been built/repaired at different times, by whoever was "holding fort ...

... we left to go along the Street of the Knights leading up to the turrets. The street was austere after the garden and as black clouds gathered we started to wander through the myriad of streets back to the ship. Each shop invited us in so we eventually succumbed to buying a belt to provide an extra strap to secure my backpack with vague concerns of security in Cairo. Purchases in tow we arrived back at the Equinox a bit footsore but definitely treasuring some new memories.

... going back and no-one telling me til the next morning over breakfast!)... When the boat departed from Koycegiz I was the only person on it - aside from the driver/captain and his mother (who was also the cook; the waitress and a better skilled sailor/navigator than her son who on the way back, slept at the back of the boat while she steered!!). I was on my own for an hour as we sailed out ...

I was really overdue my holidays, finally getting to take it in October and I just signed up to two weeks of not doing much in Turkey with a couple of friends in a group. For me though not doing much isn't my cup of tea so I took every chance to re-live my old Turkey memories, from food, sights, sea, dancing and ahem, yes the men, again :)

Please come back soon as I update all the stories from the two weeks. Thanks.

Another beautiful day. Sunny 78 degrees on the island of Rhodes. We travel to Lindos half way down the island. To see the Acropolis were Paul spoke to the Greeks. A long climb to the top with a view to forever. Just outstanding. Back to the boat early to catch some sun by the pool.

I am going to upload a couple of pics from yesterday on Myconos to give you an idea of the beauty here.

... felt comfort in its words and felt more at peace with my surroundings. After talking with the locals we have found a man called Kadeer who is willing to help us. We want to go to Istanbul next and he gave us advice as to the cheapest way to travel and the best times. He is also from İstanbul and will arrange for our tickets to go and for us to be collected from the bus station at the other end. The journey should take about 18 hours!!!! we will keep you posted

August 28th - Rhodes, Greece

I awoke at half past three. We were docked at some large town - and had been for some time. Was this Rhodes ? I ran down to the lower deck looking for someone to ask, anyone. But the ship was deserted. I caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror. I looked like the Wild man of Borneo, I thought. Eventually I found a man in a blue suit who dismissed my worries and told me to go back to sleep. I went back to my snug spot on the oily deck and dreamed I was ...
