The Norwegians might have been here all winter (or not, thinking about it their catamaran might have been, but they can fly to meet it now). I have had a couple of 'foreign to Greece' yacht-living friends stuck in weird places (Pylos for example) because that is where they chose to winter over and ended up not being able to leave to resume their summer plans to move eastwards when they had intended. Your bay on the other hand would not have been a tiresome place to be confined to.
ReplyDeleteNew Zealand has been put on a lot of "allowed" countries to visit, but the government is actively discouraging anyone here from traveling overseas.
ReplyDeleteI love the way your photos look so summery (is that a word? LOL) :)
I am so envious of your gorgeous blue sky and warm sunshine. No wonder you are seeing so many incomers. I would be one of them if I was brave enough, although our island wouldn't let me back in if I went overseas!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos that I try not to envy :-)
ReplyDeleteI like the look of that Norwegian Cat'. I really should have learned how to sail.
ReplyDeletewow that is an amazing view! I sure would like to be out on that boat.
