Well, after a wonderful couple of weeks of warm weather and no wind the gods have had a change of heart!

We heard the weather was coming in so we decided to head for our favourite spot - George's (Karnagio) - on Meganisi.

We had a force 5 wind (about 20 knots) on the nose down to the bridge at Levkas (about an hour and a half's sail) and then more wind down to Meganisi. We had to resort to weather gear as waves (spray) were coming over the boat and it was pretty chilly. But oh, was it so lovely when we got to George's! So calm and welcoming. ?

We had rain in the afternoon and through the night, and more wind is forecast. So we have decided to stay.... It's probably about 18 degrees as we speak... But the sun is out. At least for now.

Boats going through the bridge. The swing bridge is up and running again. It cost €10000 per day to have the ferry in place while this was being repaired.
