    We named this trip “the refreshment cruise.” This boat was a big, wooden Turkish gulet. On the deck looking over the water is my friend Antoine and knitting just above him is his sister Caroline. A boat is really the perfect place to swim, read, catch some rays, or simply do absolutely nothing.

    Every day there was the perfect day for a silk scarf. Here I hung my Hermès out to dry with matching pegs.

    Onur Kece, my friend who organized the trip, showed us how it’s done and jumped from the side of the boat into the deep turquoise water.

    Here are a few of the ladies on the trip as we sail through Greek waters. While sunbaking, the girls did their best to avoid tan lines.
