Turkey Day 6


Waking up in this wonderful anchorage at Karacoen was delightful. It turned out to be a really hot sunny day. Can (John) came on board to have a cup of tea with us then he invited us to visit his father's garden and orchard at the top of the nearby hill.


As we climbed the hill we had wonderful views of the bay below us. Then we arrived in this idyllic world of olive trees, wild flowers and all sorts of vegetables. Can proceeded to fire up a wood stove and made us all a cup of turkish tea.
After a fascinating visit to this secret garden we headed down to see Can's private aquarium.

Later in the day after swimming and lunch we sailed back across the Gulf of Fethiye to Gocek.
We had our evening meal on board but went ashore to try Turkish Baclava at a restaurant by the marina.
Mary had to fly hom in the middle of the night as she was due back at work on Monday.
