Arki

I’m surprised, but the crew of Syeni (Nicolas boat) and Camira were all up the next day and made off for Arki. We anchored in Blue Bay, I’m not actually sure if this is what it’s called but it’s very apt, the water is crystal clear and as blue as blue can be, beautiful!

We arrived after Nicolas and Marielle to be told that Marielle was in bed ill from the night before’s shenanigans. I felt so sorry for her, a hangover in the heat we have here at the moment would be murder. I put some alka seltzer in a plastic bag in between my teeth and swam over with them.

That night we went over to Syeni for a small aperitif. We were very well behaved in that not a lot of alcohol was consumed, however, there was a beautiful full moon and Nicolas said it was a Catalan tradition to bare your bum to the moon, make a wish and swim naked in the sea. Well….it had to be done. However, the swim came later from my own boat…..the French are quite happy pottering about naked, but I’m Scottish. It was a good night and very beautiful.
