Back to paxos

30th August 3.00am
the boys are at Corfu airport! Within 20 minutes they are with us at the yacht
club and it is an hour before we all settle down to get some sleep. 8.00am
Sarah and I slip the lines and we head south for Gaios on the island of Paxos. Tom
& Ewan emerge around 10.00am and before long have settled down to enjoy the
sun on a windless morning as we motored down the coast of Corfu. The only
excitement on this trip was as we approached Paxos when the fishing rod bent
over and the line rushed out, but sadly we did not hook the fish. To cap it
all, this happened twice but such is life! Moored
up stern-to the quay in almost the same spot that we had earlier in the week
and wandered into town to get some lunch. Met Yanis first who was pleased to
meet the boys again, but thought it odd that Sarah called them her babies! We
then went to Pan and Theo's restaurant where they were both working today.
Great excitement as they greeted the boys and we stayed and ate there. The
afternoon involved taking the dinghy round to an island for a swim and then a
quiet siesta. In
the evening we ate again at Pan's whilst he sat with us and regaled us with
stories. Finally Sarah and I went back to Serafina leaving the boys to check
out the night life! They were back on board about an hour later having
discovered that there was not much happening tonight, but that Monday should be
a good night and they had done some serious research of bars and the disco for
later in the week! |
