Day two in Poros.

We awake to another beautiful sunny day after a great nights sleep.  While I organise the laundry and provisioning, Greg handles the Port Police and then we meet for a cappuccino to decide what to do today.

There are some great beaches close by and I'm busting for a swim so we hire a scooter for the afternoon.  After an early lunch we set off around the Island.

The first beach we pass is Askeli Beach and decide to end up there after we have been around the island.  There is a huge super ship in the bay with an Australian flag flying, we wonder who it could be? Maybe Mr Lowy or Greg Normal.

We then continue and end up at Vagionas Bay for a swim and cold beer.
We travel up to the top of Poros and we can see out north to the island of  Aegina, the seas are looking pretty calm and its a fantastic view.

We then pass by Poseidon's Sanctuary and yes more ruins but not worth a photo  but some interesting ancient history.

It's hard to read due to the tree shadow I'm afraid.

Then we go to Russian Bay which looks great and maybe a mooring for tomorrow night if it is protected from the winds.

Last pit stop is Love Bay.

We hire some deck chairs and set up for the afternoon, swimming and relaxing, it's really great here.
After a few hours we are feeling cooked so time to head back to the harbour.  We pass by Askeli Beach again and take a closer look at the super yacht.  I can't believe it, it's Ilona, Mr Lowys yacht.  How uncanny is that!

Back at the yacht we fill up with diesel and I collect the laundry.  It's breezy but we are fairly protected where we are.
