We took them to our favorite spots in Ka\u00c5\u0178 and then sailed with them to Kekova. We had a great time with them, doing lots of swimming, reading, talking and, of course, eating and drinking. Our favorite restaurant in Kekova (Aperlai Restaurant) outdid themselves with an incredible Turkish meal. We sat out on the lovely table set up on the dock and enjoyed the beautiful evening light while devouring multiple mezzes and salads and fish and lamb. The weather was almost perfect and the anchorages uncrowded. We also had some incredible views of the full (or almost full) moon rising over the sea and mountains around Kekova, went to Gokkaya, Kale Koy, and finally dropped Wileen and Steve off in Ucagiz. It was a wonderful week.<br \/>\nL.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4513\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4513\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
