Athens to Paros

Day 4
Up at sparrows fart for transfer to the famous Piraeus port. Lovely morning, arrived early (around 7am) for an 8.45 cruise. Pretty chuffed as we were the first ones to arrive. BUT, little did I know that means diddly squat, nada, zilch, nothing here in Greece. By the time we boarded (see further down for that debacle) there must have been 50 to 100 people that just decided to join the line at the front. Needless to say I was furious.

Departure was supposed to be 8.45. No sign of cars or passengers even boarding and it’s 9.30. More people joining the queue AT THE F&@!ING FRONT). 9.45 and…….mad scramble to the stairs…..yes stairs…….with heavy bags.

What was puzzling was passengers and cars were still arriving after 8.45, so we reckon they combined 2 cruises without telling us.

No communication from anyone at any time. Google and Trip advisor reviews will NOT BE GOOD

Made it onboard. Now time to calm down. Jarryd and Mitch are not the only ones with weird tattoos. (Refer to photos)

5 hrs and we’re in Paros. Pretty slick disembarkation….basically get off, we have to get to the next port. But, we’re here. Awesome place. Still not sure why they can’t replicate our caravan toilet process……toilet paper in the basket next to you.

Steph is a very happy camper……Joel and his girlfriend Kayla have joined us for a couple of nights

Found the most amazing rooftop bar. Only recently opened so the 2, 33 Euro bottles of wine were free.Read more
