Hi Everyone,

 

Our plan to leave Comino to head for Greece has been a little delayed.  The winds increased again and in particular, North East of us where we are heading.

So we have had three nights in Gozo marina and now have a good weather window from tomorrow, 12th May, north westerly wind , moving to westerly, 15 to 20 knots dropping to 10 knots.

This should be good for the 380 nautical mile trip to Zakinthos, we estimate about a two and half to three day trip.

 

Today we explored the island a little after our previous ferry visit with Mom and Dad.  The buses here are as easy as in Malta to get around ----- with all buses running in and out of the capital Victoria ( Rabat ) for 47 cents a trip.

Love to all
