Argostoli: Our previous delays in India, the Red Sea and Turkey meant that,
unfortunately, Greece turned into a bit of a whistle-stop tour, of a very
limited selection of the sights, people and food of such a diverse country
:-(
We basically traced a brief (and mainly upwind :-(!) arc across the Aegean
Sea, day-sailing through the Dodecanese and Cyclades Island groups, calling
at Simi, Tilos (2 nights), Gya, Astipalia (3 nights), Amorgos, Paros,
Kithnos & Paros (2 nights), before taking the spectacular shortcut afforded
by the Corinth Canal into the Ionian Sea, via a couple of nights in the
Gulf of Patras.
We then had a very relaxing 10 days in the Ionian, largely based in Agia
Effimia, which lies on the east side of Kephalonia, but also including some
spectacular stops around Meganisi and Ithaka.
Unfortunately we didn't have time to head further north to catch up with
our friends on Renegade - but were lucky enough to coincide in place and
time for a catch up with an old UK mate Cal and her family.... Awesome!
