Sailing again

It is Sunday 15th April and we have been afloat for 3 weeks.
     

This is Josephine moored at Jon's Taverna in Korfos our 1st stop after a week-end at anchor near the Corinth canal we thought the port police there may renew our cruising papers however not to be so on to Korfos with a good supermarket and water on the quay. Josephine had wintered well and once we washed off the red dust that coated her she looked like new again.

A new addition to the galley a new cooker and far better than the previous model. The old cooker had the usual 2 rings and an oven that was on or off, the new model has similar 2 rings and a grill and the oven has a control that has 9 ! settings as time goes on it will be interesting to see if this improves that cooking on board.

    Well we still needed to get out cursing permit so of to Epidavrous the closest harbour with port police and post office /bank so not far 15 nautical miles and after an hour we had renewed our papers and could set off legally for the summer. 

The Skipper enjoying a glass on the quay at Epidavrous and from there off to Poros a favourite port of ours.

      The Greek Easter is week-end 7th to 9th April and a couple of years ago we had an enjoyable time at Ermoui so we planed a route.

   I shall let you all know how things have gone next week.
