Be careful, be aware.

Hi to everyone. Be.careful and aware is because, for the first time in all my travels, I have been scammed. pissed off ? You bet!!! But nothing you can do about it, just keep on sailing. A couple of us went draw money out and when the card wouldn't go in I was worried, long story after that, but Di in NZ rang the bank and within 40 minutes my card was canceled in NZ but they had succeeded in getting a bit of money out. So, not to bad as card was canceled and that would be the end to it. No way!!!! That was midday Friday, by midday Sunday they had taken a bloody lot out. Even though the card was canceled it continued to work. Don't ask me how but tbe bank has been very good at keeping Di informed and are trying to sort out. Hopefully this will be the end of it but it certainly leaves you with a shit feeling. So, on with the good stuff. Weather good, sailing good, food and alcohol good, swimming fantastic and everything is great.Did a trip to a place called Dalyan which has tombs, ruins, turtles and beautiful scenery. And also a huge market. We have anchored out every night but one and eaten on board every night but two. We have been very lazy but that is what it is meant to be especially for Steph and Robin who go back to work in London next week and for Viv who goes back to NZ next week. So be careful out there. Coverage in some of the bays is not great so I will blog when I can Pip/Rod
