After two nights in Ormos Plati we were driven out by the combined attack of the beach bar music until the wee small hours and the relentless flies that seem to have arrived.
So on Thursday about 09:30 we upped anchor and set off for the west cove of Ormos Thanos just under 4 miles away. It was very picturesque and seemed ideal. The flies however had followed us, perhaps I should shower?

The main issue however was the direction of the waves, although slight, we were pitching from side to side and it deffy wouldn’t have been comfortable to (not) sleep through.
On we go again then ………. just after 13:00 we set off to the next bay, Ormos Pavlou. It looked more promising. Only problem though was that by now the wind had really gotten going and outside the lee of the bay we were met with white horses coming from the direction we wished to go. After a brave attempt that was abandoned as well. Back to Ormos Plati and the flies it was, where at 15:00 we dropped anchor again in the same spot.

Friday night & Saturday morning was spent scrubbing Camira’s bum. A long job with a snorkel, especially the keel but she did prove to be a lot faster through the water after it. My feet however took a battering, lol.
Not the prettiest feet you’ll agree even before my fight with the underside of the boat.
Having finished cleaning we headed back to Mirina bay to anchor and provision up for the next passage up north to Thassos. It was looking good for Sunday or Monday.
Of course we had to have a farewell meal. We went back to Cosmos again.

OMG your poor feet. Is that what happened trying to get on the white horses. Do you ride?
Hate flies they are filthy.
