Lots of plans for today. Things to do etc. but like all such schemes, they
do not always quite work out.

Usual morning exodus of boats leaving just three of us here to enjoy the
place. Seems the day had hardly started when David and Jill called by in
their dinghy to suggest that we might join them for a lunchtime drink in the
bar on the quay. (There is one bar, one taverna and one shop here and
nothing else apart from a few houses.)

Took the opportunity to take rubbish ashore and buy bread etc and then sat
down for drink or two, which ended with a light lunch in the taverna and a
return to Serafina at 3.30pm. [Please note Sarah has finally gone on the
wagon for a while....]

Further plans were then disrupted by a very welcome phone call from Nigel
and Karen Curry (Nika, Najad 380) who had just been reading this log and
discovered that they were in the next bay to us! They had hired a car for
the day and could they pop round for a drink and a chat. 30 minutes later I
picked them up from the quay and we had a great time exchanging information
as we were passing in opposite directions and had loads of useful advice to
give and receive. (and stories to tell...) It was Karen's birthday, so they
did not stay too late as they had dinner plans elsewhere. Sadly they are
moving on to Turkey now whilst we are staying in Greece for a while longer,
but we do now have a great list of more places worth visiting and places to
moor etc.
