| About: | In 2009 we both turned 50 years of age and embarked on our dream of sailing the Mediterranean. We worked our way from Skiathos, Greece and after a few adventures settled in Marmaris, Turkey before moving to a new marina in Cyprus. |

End of Another Season
28 October 2010 | Yacht Marine
Like a British Summer Changeable
Unfortunately our immediate sailing was cut short when we had to fly back to the UK for the funeral of a close friends daughter. Rachie was only young (24 years old), suffered from diabetes and will be sadly missed, but always fondly remembered. A poem that she wrote for us has pride of place on Bruadar:
When you are sailing the open sea,
These rules will make your travels care free.
Packing is easy; you can not go wrong,
With bikinis, flip flops and a sarong.
Whichever cuisine you desire,
Never cook on board with an open fire.
And if you want a glass of wine....
Put the yacht on "auto" and you'll be fine!
Forget the hassles of travelling in cars,
when you're relaxing under the stars.
In a strong wind put up the sails,
But keep a look out for dolphins and whales.
If you start to feel a bit sick,
Put you head overboard - and make it quick!
When you go ashore and leave the yacht,
Make sure you tie the anchor's knot!
In your yacht there is a world to see,
One more thing... is there room for me?
We're now back in the Marina after fouling the prop on a lazy line and are getting ready for a lift out and flight back to the UK next month although we've also booked a return flight back to Turkey for early January.
