Last Day At Katelios


So after five weeks living on the beach, the ferry from Patras is looming large on the horizon.
We will set off for Poros in the morning, stock up on a few supplies and catch the evening ferry to Kilini, where we will sleep on the dockside before setting off for Patras and the voyage northwards up the Adriatic to Ancona.
Our last day has seen us enjoy a boat ride along the coast with Terry. The colours of the water have to be seen to be believed and you an see right down to the sea bed with ease. My highlight was being given the wheel and encouraged to open the throttle!!Anna back in the harbour and secured to to her mooring.

You will have seen Lola being held by Nicos in a previous blog. She calls each morning for a drink and a cuddle.

Adonis paid us a special visit and we were able to see him so clearly.
 Cannas are really coming into their own now and this barrel-full are at the side of us,as we sit having morning coffee at Kat Tav, one of our many wifi stops.
The jetty. It has been in ruins for months but as the busy tourist season approaches the local Greeks have still not repaired it!!  Roger and Melvyn to the rescue!! They fixed it with timber and breeze blocks so that the water taxi from Scala can dock. 

 Tonight we will share a farewell meal with Dave and Ellen as a Thankyou for letting us use their  washing machine and the many times that Dave has driven to and fro with our toilet cassette

So all that remains is to buy a few momentous and have a farewell meal with Dave and Ellen tonight. Me thinks that there could be plenty of the wine on the table too!
