The Greek Coastguard managed to run one of their boats aground at the entrance to the marina. It nearly sunk but managed to be pumped out until a large barge arrived from Athens to lift it for repairs. Red faces somewhere methinks
The poor sailors and a dog where on the deck overnight and for another 48 hours .
As previously posted I returned to Scotland for my 1st covid jab at the end of March. This was the menu plan at the boutique hotel EK, courtesy of my sister in law , fabulous, but I bust the zip on my jeans at London Heathrow on my return, lol
10 days sitting on my bum quarantined watching TV and eating & drinking diet must start soon……ish
This is Joni & Bruce and their lovely big boat that they bought in Turkey & have spent 5 years doing up.
and also pics of lunch and Easter at Marcos cafe at the marina.
Christos the gardener at the rental accommodation very kindly brought us free range eggs from his chickens, some painted red for Easter and some baking from his wife.
The red ones are hard boiled and what you do is bash them against one another to crack the shells signifying the rolling away of the stone story in the Bible.
How thoughtful is that ?
Saturday the 1st of May saw us at Samos Town hospital. Louise had woken very unwell sweating, being sick and feeling faint. At 07;00 at the hospital they checked her for covid before allowing admittance. She was given a sedative, X,ray, CT scan ECG and bloods. All came back fine . They think possibly a panic attack ….. but that is not Louise so who knows ? Anyhow all OK now.
Kalo Mina means happy month , the Greeks wish each other this on the 1st of every month , ours is off to a good start , lol
Views from the hospital across the bay as I waited outside and the return in her Jammies to the house.
The following week was my turn for the medics, my 2nd jab at Karlovassi 36 kms away in the NW of the island, this is just a pic of the day, I remember was taken to send to Friends of Camira on Whats App as it was raining in Scotland.
And a drink in Pythagorio one evening
You can see from the size of the gin she recovers quite well!
Firstly glad Louise is ok. What a fright. The big Turkish boat looks lovely. How nice was that getting the free range eggs and the baking. You must be well thought of by them. No wonder your jeans burst with all that stuff Diane was feeding you. Lol. Bloody covid never even got to say Hello.
