A day on anchor – Porto Koufo

Just a pictorial representation of a day, dawn to dusk on anchor in Porto Koufo, which came about as follows:

A normal day starts with Lily meeowing at dawn, trying to get us up.

We usually ignore it and eventually she will settle back down to sleep usually across Louise for another couple of hours.

She was particularly vociferous this day so I got up to see what the issue was.

Now I’m not a cat psychologist but I am absolutely sure that (she) having been prowling the boat all night “guarding it “ believes that it’s our turn to get up and “guard”, because no sooner are you up she settles down for a kip, without fail !

So given I was up I thought I would have a coffee & take a few pictures at different times throughout the day.

At lunchtime we were joined by an Italian hen party on a catamaran that we think had been rented for a day out. They left late afternoon.

A Hen Cat or is it a Cat Hen?

and we were then joined by another couple of yachts for the evening.

Before we head ashore and (she) having slept most of the day gives me a look that says “Aye, same again tomorrow, make sure you’re up”
