Heading Back Home

Woke up at anchor - in exactly the same place as when we had gone to sleep. Pretty good, huh?

The day started quite dramatically with a local gullet being launched right next to us. It was very exciting, with everyone watching. After the dust had settled and the waves had calmed down everyone went about their morning business... until someone noticed that the boat was getting lower in the water. Sure enough - it was sinking! Oh dear. We all watched as the newly launched boat gradually sank, then we all went over in our dinghies and had a good old look.

After the excitement of the morning Jamie and I had a pleasant sail back to Bodrum and sadly I trundled back to the grey gloom of London.

Ah, good times.
