The cruise was absolutely amazing!!! At 2 0’ clock we boarded the 41 foot yacht and set sail for the horizon. We went past the red beach and the white beach. None of these two beaches had sand, just rock – white and red. The white one mainly consists of limestone. I can’t remember the story about the red one. Our first stop was at the red beach. Some of the people got off for a swim but we held out for the hot spring stop. The hot spring stop was next and not hot at all. It was slightly warmer but it was still in an open bay so the regular see water made it a little colder. It was nice getting in the water and have a swim around.
When everybody was aboard again we sailed off to our dinner spot where the crew prepared prawns, calamari, squid, pork steaks, chicken strips, pasta salad with their world-renowned saganaki sauce (it’s on the food network), greek salad, tzatziki and eggplant dip. It was to die for!! We felt like celebrities the whole day. Definitely something to get used to. The best part of it all – I didn’t get sick.
The sea was a bit rough on the way back to the harbour but we made it back safely. We watched a magnificent sunset on the way back and arrived at the port at 7. It was definitely a day to remember and a trip worth while.
Dinner was at another little greek tavern and drinks at Murphy’s. Nenan (we call him Slimmes – the hot guy who picked us up at the airport) wanted to meet us at 11 for drinks but we left him a letter at the hotel (taped to the gate with lots of plasters) to meet us in town. Eventually he met up with us in Tropical bar, the local Australian bar. We had a few drinks and then went to his place for champagne. We were exhausted after a long day and went to bed.
