On the 13th July we headed back yet again to Samos. This time we anchored in the bay until our water ran out. Its far cooler and quieter on anchor and you can jump off the back of the boat when its too hot. Its also an easy row in the dinghy to the breakwater. That’s now 14 nights anchoring consecutively , a record for us.
Pythagorian Bay anchorage
But eventually a laundry and water stop is required and on the 16th July we returned to the harbour wall.
One man and his goat (on a tour baot in the harbour)
Yes you have guessed it 2 days later Nicolas arrived, this time with his nephew.
Remi
He has now gone until his next sailing pick up arrives next week, but not before cooking us Fillet Mignon.
It is now 19th July (Where is the summer going?). Its still gusting 35 knots , so we are staying put for a while. We have been approached by a young American couple asking if we would consider taking them to the next island we intend visiting and dropping them off. We’ll see ….perhaps? We may visit another part of Samos first so it might not be practicable.
Anyhow that’s the blog up to date and there follows a map of our voyage so far at the request of Fiona to save her looking up the places on the internet. Hope it helps
Bye for now
Whats with the man and his goats? What is he doing?Hope you watched out for that American couple. They could be modern day pirates who bag a lift then throw you overboard and steal your boat.Yes the map helps tremendously. See how quickly I have caught up because I am not google mapping everything 🙂 xx
