Hi Beth: Would you believe I don't know when we are in Santorini now? I'll look it up and report in - it would be great to meet up.

Mytelini was small but it gave me a feeling of what Greece is really like - very individual. Greek drivers are unbelievable and I would say the Turkish come in a close second!

We sailed by the Navigator this morning and were lucky enough to be in a perfect position to catch it sail out. Should anyone from LCT be on board at present and like a photo of the ship leaving Istanbul - yell out!

I have decided to let Jackie to do the reporting from now on - she is so much more professional than me. We are meeting up for a group dinner tonight (LCT and CC) so I'll let her know what I've volunteered her for.

I found Istanbul fascinating and was very impressed by everything - it's so different, but I forget the names of things and Michael unfortunately isn't nearby. I just loved the 'Something or Other Cisterns' - the Roman underground water system. I couldn't get over all the men and boys fishing off the pier in very, very dirty water. I'm hoping they don't sell what they catch to Regent!

Apart from Olympia, so far we have walked the ports by ourselves and now they have changed the day we visit Santorini, all our booked tours have been cancelled - how's that for luck? We've managed to get a few alternatives which will have to do.
