Stromboli to Messina Gallico. After fun hiking stromboli as far as we could go we left timing the Messina Strait for good currents. We saw a swordfish boat and moored in the strait to hide out from wind.

Messina Gallico to Antipaxos Mesovrika. 64 hours, sunsets and sunrises. A night mooring with Tony. Busy busy crossing, it definitely keeps one alert and awake.

Paxoi Mesovrika to Roda. An early morning move around the island to our favorite bay. Roda never fails to impress. Chasing a French boat who overtook us on the inside corner only to discover the anchorage is a technical one and left after failing to find a spot. Dropped anchor with lines ashore and time to do some exploring by snorkel and a run on the island. Kev playing the role of clearing out the spiders through the overgrown bush 🙌😜 Time for braai night!!

Paxoi Roda to Anti Paxoi Gaios. What a wonderful surprise. Anchor outside the town for swimming and then a 2pm motor to the town quay for a discovery walk, some shopping and a Greek dinner. What a treat to get to eat out 👏❤️. Night on the shore is always fun.

Gaios to Blue Cave
May 25, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
Gaios to Blue Cave. A secret surprise visit to blue cave. What’s up with these caves and their dangerous anchorages. I guess it’s something with the make up of the geology in the area? Dropping anchor chain on the rocks we took turns to snorkel into the blue cave. Much excitement with Tony and Clair. Clair had to rescue tired Tony with the sup board.

Blue cave to Lakka
May 25, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Blue Cave to Lakka. We don’t often get to new places and when we do, despite our homework we are always delighted with a new finding. Lakka was mind blowingly beautiful. Not sure that’s a word 🥰. With turquoise waters like this it was time to send Kevin up the mast for a Jaci and Clair photoshoot. Much to the delight of our neighbor Saffers, who did some jumping of their own for Kevin to take. A wonderful monastery run in the morning 👏.

Paxoi Lakka to Sivota Nikolaos. Not wanting to leave magical Lakka we continued along mainland to Sivota to our natural bay with lines ashore. Unfortunately the stress of the upcoming trip and a little peopled out gave me a little meltdown. A sup to the marina was peaceful and followed by some Jaci time out. A lovely bay 😊

Plataria
May 28, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
Syvota Niklaos to Plataria. Bad storms coming and our final clean of GypsyDjango necessitate a dreaded visit to the town quay for the night. Anticipated last trip with Tony and Clair to Corfu. So today was a big day with washing, scrubbing and polishing. Plataria not a great town but convenient. Many loads of washing done in the official laundromat which turned out to be a machine in the backstreet with one load at a time. I am tired and stressed but need to keep going. Expecting the storm to arrive by midday tomorrow we set our alarms for 5am to beat the storm. At midnight a harsh sound wakes us and Kevin and I rush out to find the boat next to us off anchor and on our port side pushing us onto our other neighbors. An urgent wake up of Tony and the process of tying the rogue boat away from us became the goal. After a stressful hour we retired back to our cabins and deactivated our 5am alarms making the decision not to cross to Corfu but remain at Plataria. Unfortunately causing Tony and Clair to have to make their own way across while we prepared for Paul 😂😂

Corfu Ormos Garitsas
May 30, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
Plataria to Corfu Ormos Garitsas. Finally time to return to Corfu. I enjoy this hip old town and it’s time to find my red purse from last year that I wanted to buy. A good bay from a holding perspective and access via the marina.

Shopping walk to Lidl for red bulls! 😜

Ormos Garitsas to Ormos Kommeno. Off to a new bay next to Gouvia Marina. A good bay with lots of anchorage space and not too busy but deep waters. However the conditions were perfect. A dinghy ride to the shore and a walk to the marina store to get a 🇨🇦 for GypsyDjango 👏
