After disembarking Erica at Paros to catch her ferry, we continued east to Bodrum to collect Meredith and Bruce, spending
3 days at anchor on the way at the little island of Dhonussa as the meltemi had cranked up again.
 
Looking NW from Dhonussa with the top end of the island of Naxos in the distance

and relaxed

Anchorage and port at Agathonisi.  As we arrived, the coastguard were removing about 40 Iraqi
illegal immigrants...though how they got to this island we don't know
