Open Blue - Parga, and a thunderstorm

Parga, and a thunderstorm

Open Blue

Tim & Manfreda Penfold

Fri 11 May 2012 08:41

Position 39:16.95N 20:24.23E

We left Corfu on Thursday, sailed back to Paxos and spent the night in our favourite anchorage in Lakka. Friday we motored over to Parga, and anchored in a lovely bay right by town, hemmed in by very spectactular pine covered rocks and the beach. A thunderstorm came through about 6PM and had me worried about the anchorage, at one point we only had half a metre of water under the keel, but it soon passed and we had a peaceful night.
