Day 33 - Lefkada

Left Santorini earlier than intended to keep the lady in the London office of Sailing Holidays happy because we weren't travelling direct from London there was some concern that we wouldln't meet up with the main group. We caught the  ferry at 2am in the dark rather than the civilised 2pm one we were going to catch. For all my careful planning we have missed sailing into Santorini during the daytime to catch the view.

Had an hours sleep on Santorini and then got a cabin on the ferry for a few more hours sleep. Went into Athens to pick up the shirt Ronnie left behind - his favourite shirt and we are travelling pretty light so it was worth the slight detour. Onto the bus station to catch the bus to Lefkada – five hour trip.  Saw Corinth Canal – tight squeeze which is probably why the ships don’t use it. Have now done a circuit (pretty much) of Greece by bus. Amazing countryside.  Very nice bus trip.

This is not our yacht nor our yachting group but it is a yacht:
