The Eastern Mediterranean Yacht Rally Arrives To Mersin (Again)
Tonight the presence of dozens of internationally-flagged single and dual-hulled yachts transformed the yacht harbour near home. The catamarans were particularly impressive. The boats are here for the 2007 Eastern Mediterranean Yacht Rally (EMYR). It seems like only yesterday that the 2006 EMYR yachts were in Mersin. Tomorrow morning I hope to get up early with my camera, go out and snap a few photos.EDIT: here are photos from this morning (2007-05-23):

Thanks for popping around. It's good to hear of another Aussie in this area. How long will you be in Adana for and how are you coping with the heat and humidity? Coming from Melbourne it must be a killer.
Let me know when you come to Mersin. I can show you around 'my' town.
