We decided to explore this morning. We went back into the little area where we had dinner and Rick, Kay, Mike, and I walked into town while Terry and Joanne took headed in in the dinghy. We had some beautiful views during our short walk, maybe 20 minutes. Here are some pictures.
We arrived in the town and checked out the thermal springs which were quite hot.
We wandered around the town a little, it was quite small. They had a good grocery store so we got a few items and then dinghied back to the boat.
It took us a while to get unmoored. We had to take the dinghy to the shore, untie the rope, bring it back to the boat and then get the dinghy onto the deck all before pulling up the anchor. We headed out and we knew we were either going to Andros, Tinos, or Syros (if you look these islands up they might be spelled slightly different since they are be translated from Greek letters to Roman letters). We couldn’t sail because we were headed directly into the wind. We ended up at Kini beach on Syros.
We were the first boat into the bay but by the time we went to bed there were 6 boats in the harbor.
We relaxed in the afternoon, watching the other boats anchor. Actually we were protecting our boat from other skippers who didn’t know what they were doing and were attempting to anchor too close to us.
That evening we went took the dinghy into the town and had very nice dinner. Here are some pictures.
Of course dominoes that night.
