Katakolon is a very good place to drop hooh because there's tons of swinging room in 5m depths and the bottom is thick sticky mud, as witnessed by my beef Wellington encased anchor this morning. Even if on a lee shore with big winds I would feel quite safe with the hook in at Katakolon. When ashore this morning to try again for Vodafone or Cosmote dongle. No problems he me thinks, there's a friggin big cruise liner in called Zeneth, with thousands of pazzies being deposited ashore so I am sure to get me dongle. No phone shop in the place at
all! This dongle is getting like rockin'orse sh1t.Tons of people. All eyetie's being greeted and almost accosted by the local entrepreneurs outside their different types of touristy gift shops. Wonderful culture and obviously typical Greece - not! After a stroll up and down the non-phone shop high street it's back to Ticketeeboo for a relatively short pssage of about 25m.
Everything is wet or damp on deck and in cockpit today because at six this morning there was another big thunderstorm dishing out so much rain it was like being in ral thick fog. I was quite pleased because this means I don't need to wash the boat now because she's nolonger
covered in salt. Quite a delight! It took a while for the sun to show. There's lots of clouds again,
like yesterday and outside temperature is barely in the 20s. It's about time the weather settled again. If it doesn't Robert will be less than pleased when he gets to s/y Condor on Sunday in Preveza to do repairs and get her ready to sail before Collette joins him the following week.
Towards end of this little leg Ticketeeboo crosses into North Ionian again, just!
