In Kas we hired a car for the day and visited Xanthos,
The Saklikent Gorge and Tlos. Xanthos and Tlos are both ancient Lycean
sites; each very different and again interesting. The gorge was incredibly busy
with it being a Sunday and many locals had come out for the day. Duncan walked
up the gorge with many hundreds of other people. It was not easy and much of it
was done in the water; he came back wet up to his armpits. In the afternoon we
visited Tlos; there was much more to see here as it was further inland and had
not been plundered so much.
We drove back via Fethiye to try and sort out the mobile
phone, but with it being Sunday, the office was closed.
On the Monday we left Kas marina and motored all the way
to Fethiye, where we met up with "Happy Dancer", Dini and Pablo and their two
small kids. We had helped them to find a suitable boat and it was good to see
them in action, having lived on the boat for more than a year now. We stayed in
Yes marina, which we enjoyed.
We checked out here to leave for Rhodos,
Greece.
