Approaching Órmos Áy Ioannou |
Originally we had intended to sail upwind to Míkonos from where Charlotte was getting her flight home. However, on balance, it was decided that flogging upwind did not involve enough sunbathing. So, to fit in with the holiday aspirations, we moved 10 miles from Náxos to Órmos Áy Ioannou, a lovely anchorage on the northern tip of Páros. As we approached the sheltered area of the bay it was clear that a lot of other people had had the same idea.

In the evening we concocted a marinade for chicken pieces and lit the barbeque. Almost as soon as we’d put the chicken on to cook Michael, Kerstin and Olive the dog came over in their dinghy from ‘Tosca’ and invited us on board for drinks. They had been moored close to us in Náxos and were now anchored nearby. We accepted the invitation and had a very chatty time on ‘Tosca’ whilst the chicken was cooking on BV. When we got back on board the chicken was cooked to perfection and we had a lovely meal discussing from where would be best for Charlotte to get a ferry to Míkonos. Pároikía was the conclusion and so that became our planned destination for the next day, Tuesday.
