We had a somewhat rolly night (not as bad as our first night in Sounion). At about 1:00 last night a ferry must have come through because the boat really started rocking. A wine bottle that fell off the shelf and landed on a glass that was on the counter. It broke the glass and made an awful crash. Rick and I immediately woke up. I cleaned it up and Rick went up top to make sure the anchor hadn’t slipped. Luckily it didn’t.
We had a leisurely morning. Mike, Kay, Rick, and I went into town to catch a bus to go to the Temple of Aphaea. Terry and Joanne stayed with the boat because the wind is very shifty in the anchorage. Built in 480 BC, the temple celebrates a local deity of pre-Hellenic Times. It is considered one of the great Hellenic temples, along with Athen’s Acropolis and Sounion’s Temple of Poseidon. It was very hot so we didn’t stay too long. Here are some pictures of the temple and the views from the temple.
We waited for the bus to take us back to Agai Marina where the boat was. We returned to the boat and had lunch before pulling the anchor and heading back to the marina in Athens. We motored the whole way.
We got to the marina in about 2 hours. Back to the huge boats of the marina.
We backed into the mooring and then the charter company came on the boat to inspect it. All was good. We relaxed and packed for the rest of the afternoon.
That evening we had leftover spaghetti for dinner along with a beautiful sunset.
And of course one last game of dominoes!
