We had a few days in Pythagorion harbour, met the new Harbour Master – Giorghos, seems like a very nice guy. I think he’ll run a tighter ship than Diamontes did though, lol.

We then headed up to Posidonia which was as busy as ever with the Turks causing the usual havoc anchoring.
We walked around to Klima bay for sea food linguini

Turns out the yacht in the middle right picture had found a stowaway, Roland the rat and were trying to get rid.
We heard on the way back to the boat from Nicolas that Mao had disappeared in Pythagorion. Nicolas had friends out for a week and had to leave without finding Mao. We offered to go back the next day and try to find him. However, when we arrived back Giorghos informed us that he had found a dead cat in the bay the day before. It took me until night time to tell Nicolas the terrible news. He has been Nicolas companion on the boat for 15 years, it’s so sad.

All in all it was a pretty awful day, we had moored up beside this motor boat, the parents went to stay in a hotel leaving the kids to party all night long, no sleep at all so left that morning for Agathonisi. We anchored in the first bay called Ayios Yeoriyiou…..heaven!
Totally alone and not a sound. We had three days here without another soul, then a few boats came. After five days we headed for Leros Marina.
Turned out Leros Marina have changed their charging structure making it quite a bit more expensive for boats of our size, so we only graced them with one night of our company, However, it did allow us to go to the wee chicken taverna across the road from it, that Gordon loves.
Then it was off to Xerocambos on the South of the island, where we picked up a mooring buoy again for the night. The script is that you eat in the respective taverna that provides the buoys, not everybody does , but we do. Tokyma is a very picturesque but unfortunately the last time it wasn’t very good (in fact it was awful). So this time we just went in for a wee meze and drink and went on to another taverna later for dinner.
The next days plan was to sail to Nisos Lipsi – which would be a new island for us.
