Quay, Castle & Porto Myrina Palace

On the Saturday (13th July) we moved into the quay where we planned to stay for a wee while.

We had decided to let Lily loose and she fair enjoyed herself but seemed to be getting confused a few times (or so we thought) and going onto to other boats by mistake. Talking to a Turkish man later it appeared she had done the rounds of a few boats.

It’s a ridiculous amount of money to berth here overnight Euros 3.70 plus VAT. So since it was Saturday we extravagantly had another night out, this time to the Phonogram Taverna just ourselves this time. Very nice but understaffed however we are not in a hurry these days.

We had Wolfgang & Renate over a night and the Highland Park was christened at the end. Sore heids the next day !

As per a previous blog we had been here before  in the next bay over staying in the Porto Myrina Palace Hotel.

I decided to have a further mini tour of Mirina & walk over through the Romeikos Gialos (The Greek Coast) to revisit the place.

It was much as remembered but seems like a different life ago! Neilson are still there though seemed a bit quieter than I remember when we were there

       

Porto Myrina Palace

Early one morning Louise took a hike up to the castle and got some cracking pictures from the ramparts.

Goats and deer roam freely around the castle

Lit up at night it looks fantastic

It’s now Wednesday the 17^th and we’ve been invited onto a Swedish boat  for drinks tonight after having been on the British one next to us last night!!

We will need to give our livers a break, soon.

We have paid for up until tonight so tomorrow is decision time.
