We started off the day cleaning up the boat. Alison wiped down the woodwork inside, Tim was cleaning the wood deck and cushions and later Alison and I did a wiped down of all the stainless steel on deck.

We took a walk into town and picked up fruit, some meat which is limited here and other things like juice canned good and milk. The prices here are a bit steep. Bread from the bakery was $ 3 for 2 loaves and some flat bread which is less than at home. I bought 12 homemade cookies and they were as much as the bread. Fresh fruit bananas, apples, strawberries were 5 lira a kg. ( $3 can.)
Turkish wine is not good so I picked up a bottle of African, Two Roads but that was $18 at home $12. Malcolm is drinking some Greek wine he picked up in bulk cardboard casks.
