Thursday 20th – still in Halki

Strong winds built up again overnight so I made the decision to stay here another day. Moving on to Tilos would entail 3-4 hours of bumpy sailing into the wind and swell, not my first choice, besides everyone like this place. So the day started with a visit to the bakery and breakfast was predominately warm fresh croissants and bread with thick yoghurt and honey. My decision to stay was confirmed when the crew on the neighbouring boat all left wearing harnesses, however not before trying to disentangle their anchor just as the massive ferry arrived.

Better still, here is the video:

Across the hill in the next bay is the only sandy beach on the island, so that is where we walked. Crystal clear water, umbrellas and loungers. A complete chill-out day. Jared & Jana busy at the waters edge most of the time, except when watching video games over Olly’s shoulder (really?…..)
