      Auf dem Weg nach Chalkida

      18 de maio, Grécia ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

      42.7 sm / 7h 20m in Ormos Sykies
      Auf dem Weg zur Brücke von Chalkida lege ich einen Stop in der schönen und sicheren Bucht ein. Obwohl auch hier Böen (schon Vorboten des Meltemi) von über 20 kt den Anker strapazieren liegt dieser im Sand fest verankert und es gibt keinen Schwell.
      Nach dem Einbau des neuen Drucksensor am Watermaker fand ich hier das erste mal klares Wasser um den Wasseraufbereitungsvorgang zu testen. Neue Filter einsetzten. Start-up Programm laufen lassen. Dieser Vorgang hat schon mal funktioniert. 😂🤞
      Mit neuen Starten den Druck überprüfen. Dieser war mit 5.5 bar noch zu niedrig, also Entlüftungsprozedere starten.
      Nächster Versuch und siehe da, 7 bar Druck und wunderbares frisches Trinkwasser läuft aus dem blauen Schlauch. 🥳🍀 Happy Life.
      Zur Feier des Tages wird ein feines Safran Risotto auf den Tisch gezaubert.

      Rafina-Marmari

      25 de setembro de 2022, Grécia ⋅ 🌙 21 °C

      Heute morgen war ich erst mal schwimmen. Es ist unglaublich wenn das Wasser im Meer wärmer ist als die Luft. Dann sind wir mit der Fähre rüber nach Marmari und haben wieder einen tollen Platz gleich neben dem Kitespot gefunden. Da sich der Wind nicht richtig entwickelt hat war es ein ausgedehnter Schnorcheltag.Leia mais

      Marmari-Styra-Akrogiali

      16 de abril, Grécia ⋅ 🌬 22 °C

      Weiter südlich wollten wir nicht mehr, also fuhren wir wieder nördlich, zuerst ganz unten an der Küste entlang. Da dies aber die alte Strasse war, mussten wir auch diese wieder hochfahren bis 500müM. Sehr steil, autobreit und ruppig.
      Weiter nach Styra, wo wir dann doch noch eines dieser sagenumwobenen Drachenhäuser fanden, das einfach so in der Gegend rumstand. Spannend.
      Danach waren wir schon wieder auf der Suche nach unserem Nachtplätzli. Dies fanden wir dann auch in einem völlig abgelgenen und grösstenteils verlassenen Fischerdörfchen Akrogiali.
      Einige Wolken haben sich inzwischen breit gemacht, so dass es etwas diesig und sehr windig wurde, aber immer noch 25 Grad.

      1. Tag Euböa

      12 de setembro de 2023, Grécia ⋅ 🌬 23 °C

      Nach der aufregenden Anreise, wurde erstmal gemütlich ausgeschlafen. Beim erst rausgehen und anschauen der Landschaft im Hellen kamen direkt zwei Katzen die natürlich erstmal gestreichelt werden wollten.
      Da wir nichts weiter zuhause hatten außer Äpfel ging es mit denen im Gepäck ab zum Strand, wo der erste Tag am Meer genossen wurde.
      Beim zurückkommen waren es dann ein paar mehr Katzen und zusätzlich noch ein Doggo #goodboy

    • Day 68 - Nea Styra, Greece

      15 de setembro de 2023, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

      This morning we woke up to our neighbours fishing and eating fish for breakfast! This would be a lone fisherman with 2 hungry cats keeping him company!

      Thanos organised a mini bus to take us up to the Acropolis of Styra.
      The castle was built on the wall of the ancient Acropolis of Styra, during the Frankish period, and its megalithic gate survives to this day. Along with the ruins of the castle there is a chapel, the chapel of the virgin, that was built in the 13th century. UNESCO have wanted to pull this down as it doesn’t have the same historic sentiment as the Acropolis, they came to an agreement to let it stay with no renovations or repairs to be made. When they made this decision, locals rushed up here and made concrete beams to support the roof! Thanos says UNESCO wasn’t happy but least now it will stand longer!

      We took the mini bus further down the hill to see the one of the Dragon Houses of Styra, they were built with massive stone blocks without mortar and large stone slabs for the roofs. The reason they are called dragon houses is due to the large stones would of been challenging to move so when found it was thought to be that dragons moved the stones to build the houses. The houses are still in discussion as to how old or who actually built them to this day though.

      We stopped in Styra for a quick drink and the mini bus left so we could walk back to the boat down in Nea Styra.
      Once back on the boat we had time for a quick swim, including jumping off the boat before lunch and us leaving the dock to go to our next village.

      Once at the next port Marmari, we found 5 kittens waiting for us to say hi with their Mum on the dock. I made good friends with them. Thanos even gave them some milk and food, he also told us they belong to one of the fishing boats owners.
      We went for a walk to the north of the port to see the Cycladic built houses of the white wash and blue painted roofs and trimmings. So Katie had a photo shoot here.

      Dinner was at a local tavern along the water with yet again, a lot of cats walking around waiting for some dropping from the table.
      After dinner we went to have a couple of drinks with some people from the boat while watching the All Blacks play on one of their phones.

      Anti Nireos-Styra-Marmari

      15 de abril, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Heute fahren wir weiter gegen die Südspitze von Eubeö. In Styra gibt es sogenannte Drachenhäuser, die aber leider mitten in der Pampa und nur über eine mehrstündige Wanderung zu erreichen wären.
      In Marmari bummelten wir durch das Dörfchen und erkundeten uns dabei nach dem Preis der Fährüberfahrt nach Athen.
      60 Euro für den Camper, pro Person
      11 Euro. Damit war schon klar, dass wir über die Strasse die Rückreise planten.
      Unser heutiger Stellplatz liegt am Ende der Bucht völlig allein mit Bombenaussicht. Mit sünnele und schnorcheln verbrachten wir die Zeit bis zum Znacht. Unsere Aussendusche ist jetzt perfekt und praktisch.

    • Day 66 - Sail to Panagia Stira, Greece

      13 de setembro de 2023, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Today is the day Thanos is determined that the weather is ok to let us sail, so we had breakfast in the hotel, Katie and I got a few supplies from the supermarket and brought our bags down to board the boat.

      We set sail and was introduced to M/S Isidoros II, which is a traditional Woden Caique. We had a 4 hour sail if all went well, though they had plans to stop the boat and let us have a swim off the boat!
      We stopped just off Pontikonisi island, all the islands around this part of Evia are privately owned (Bill Gates now owns part of one) but you are allowed to Moore your boat, swim & use the beach. Just have to make sure your boat is out of the view of there batches.

      We sailed onto our first port of call Panagia Stira via the Fjord of Almyropotamos. As we sailed in and docked, we looked over and saw a cat in another fishing boat looking for any left over fish he might get!

      Thanos explained the importance this bay was to the Nazis during WWII, they had a lot of their submarines stationed here thanks to the deep Fjord. A village nearby wanted to revolt against the Nazis and walked a boat down from their village, rowed with their hands to the submarines attaching explosives to them. They blew up 35 submarines, a lot of Nazis and themselves. The explosion could be heard in Athens. The Nazis retaliated and surrounded the village they came from once they worked out who was responsible, and burnt the village down and the people in the village - roughly 1100 people. This was meant to stop revolts against the Nazis but there were 83 more incidents like this throughout WWII against the Nazis.
      This area is also home to 26 discoveries of full dinosaur skeletons and they were all different types of dinosaurs. Which is amazing that the different types were able to live on one island together. These are now housed in Germany mainly from the Nazis stealing the skeletons.

      Thanos let us go for a wander as he had to find the priest so we could see the church later. Katie and I walked along the water, then walked back to a cafe to get a coffee & beer.

      Thanos took us at 7pm to see Holy Church of the Dormition of the Virgin, this has a painting that was out from under the floor by an unknown person when the muslims were taking over Greece, this essentially saved the painting but was weathered from being under the floor for all that time. The painting is of Mary’s death and is insured for quite a large sum of money now! We saw the original and a copy of the painting done of what it originally would have looked like.

      Out side of the church we looked at two olive trees that are 2500 years old.

      After learning about the olive trees and fines relating cutting any olive trees down in Greece, we walked further out the back to see turtles in the local creek. Thanos had some bread and fed the turtles.

      Then he took us to get fed at a local tavern. We tried the local moussaka while a lot of cats walked under our table hoping for any droppings!

      The Beach

      2 de dezembro de 2019, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

      Vor Athen wollen wir uns nochmals Ruhe gönnen. Wir scannen die Küsten und finden was wir suchen: The Beach! sozusagen. Das Wetter scheint vielversprechend, somit kaufen wir für ein paar Tage ein und füllen den Wassertank.
      Wir haben den Strand für uns, nur ein altes Ehepaar kommt zum Fischen vorbei. Wir kriegen sogar eine Teil ihres Fangs ab, wie lieb!
      Die Tage liegen wir rum, lesen viel, baden im super klaren Wasser, geniessen uns und unser Leben.
      Pünktlich auf den Sturm brechen wir auf Richtung Athen.

    • Day 64 - Karystos, Greece

      11 de setembro de 2023, Grécia ⋅ 🌬 22 °C

      Today we woke up to yet the wind howling outside against the hotel… no boating today we figured!

      We went down for breakfast and met the guide at 10:45am ready to go for a walk around the town area of Karystos.

      We started out at the church of St. Nicholas which is a Orthodox Church as Greece is an Orthodox country.
      Thanos our guide explained the difference between Christian and Orthodox churches as one would think this is a Christian Church. Main two differences we took away is the alter is behind the wall with the paintings of the Old Testament, & Orthodox churches do not have statues.
      This Church has paintings all over the wall dating back to the early centuries. This was painted over by the Nazi’s but slowly came back over the years and they ended up bringing them back to life. Parts of the walls are not painted and this is because of the Nazi’s bombing the town during the war. They saw the town as a crucial port to make sure they held held the shipping routes. When bringing the church back to life they opted to not repaint the walls damaged from the bombing, though they did make the Nazi’s before they left to fix the dome and repaint it.

      We moved up the hill to get a view point of the town. Thanos gave us a donut as a snack from a local bakery that was amazing!

      We walked back down into town and along the beach, which Thanos took us to a beach bar, Psili Ammos, for a welcome drink to the trip,as we missed our welcome drinks the night before thanks to the weather.

      2 aperol spritz for me and gin & tonic for Katie! After the drinks we were free to do what we liked. We headed for a walk around the main part of the village and got a coffee at a local coffee bar.

      For dinner, Thanos took the group to a very local eatery, Cavo d' oro Κάβο ντόρο, and explained the menu thoroughly. So much so, everything sounded amazing!
      I had the octopus dish and Katie had the pork tenderloin with pesto and sundries tomatoes. Starters was a sharing dishes that Thanos had picked for us.
      Rose was a house rose, was nice but a bitter dryer for our tastes, think we’ll opt to a white wine while in Greece.

    • Day 67 - Panagia Stira, Greece

      14 de setembro de 2023, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

      Today was our first walk of the tour! Thanos had two taxis to ferry us to the village of Argyron, which is settled in the crater of a dormant volcano. Usually Thanos walks through the fields which is the actual crater but seeing the risks of snacks we took the road up.

      Once up the road you had a lovely view of the village and villages further on. We walked away from this view and 2 minutes later we had an amazing view of the Fjord & the Islands in the area. We continued our walk down the hill to the village below, we came across a couple of turtles along the side of the road along with a lot of Marble in the hills. We arrived in Agios Dimitrios, a small village that Thanos took us to get a drink and relax. Of course beer was the logical choice while Katie pied for a lemon Fanta.

      After our break we walked further on to have a swim at Golden Sand beach just south of Agios Dimitrios. We had a half n hour swim & found it was walkable until a 100 metres out where there was a sheer drop of the floor created by the Glacier years ago.

      Once we walked back to the boat, we had lunch served on the boat while we set sail to Nea Styra.

      Once at Nea Styra, Thanos explained about the Swans on the beach further south and at the start of the pier the famous ice cream shop, Dodoni, is there. Dodoni is all over Greece but they are known for using local ingredients and always have 24 flavours each day!
      But before seeing swans or ice cream this is Thanos’s favourite spot to swim from the boat! So we jumped from the top of the boat or climbed down the ladder… Of course I jumped from the boat! After the swim in the crystal clear water we went and got ice cream.

      This village is the place to see the sunset over the mountains of Marathon, Thanos led us to dinner to watch the sunset from the pier. In true Thanos fashion he led us to believe they were smaller portions than what they were… the Courgette fries was a small serve in his eyes! We had the locally caught fish as the Resturant owns their own boat and catches it themselves!

      The sunset was lovely and the sangria & house wine was a perfect pairing to the sunset!
