All our visitors to Mykonos have come and gone, where does the time go ?

Thank you guys for coming to see us, we have had a great time sharing your holidays.

 

So, time to say goodbye to Mykonos, next stop Naxos just 20 miles South.

A great downwind sail with just the genoa out, speeding along at 7.5 knots, I had forgotten how nice it is to be downwind sailing, it certainly bought back memories !

 

We gave the small marina a miss and anchored just inside the breakwater, opposite the busy ferry dock and with a great view of the unfinished ‘Temple of Apollo

 

 

   

 

In the other direction we had a great view of the town nestled at the base of the mountains.

 

 

Ferries arrived continuously all day long with hoards of people and vehicles loading and unloading.

We can only think that there are a lot of tourists island hopping for their holidays.
