As the bells toll for the last time

I'm awake in time to see our last sunrise in Greece, and it's spectacular.

We had a pretty quite night last night, a few Ouzos in the square and then to one of our grill houses for dinner.  We enjoy our walk back to the marina, as it all sinks in that this could be the last time.

After an awful sleep thanks to the marina dogs barking their heads off; Greg actually threw onions at them to shut them up.  I'm up early and get to work as we have lots to do today.  

You can tell their is a change in the weather as there is some wind and rain early on.  As the day goes on the rain storm builds.

We pull the headsail down and fold it and stow it way.  Then we have to see the marina staff and fix up all the paperwork.  Then we go over to the port police and customs to hand in our transit log, so far so good!

We are then waiting for Vangelis to call by and look at our anchor problem, he will be fixing it for us after we leave.  We have some spare time so take a break at the marina cafe then back to work.  After lunch we have to gain access to our main sail as it's been stored for us.  We then transport it by hand to the yacht, fold it and stow it, it's back breaking as it's really heavy.

In the meantime I'm trying to pack and make room for everything.  We head into town and pick up the washing and Bimini, all done.  I'm struggling to find room in the bags as we have so much stuff to take with us, I think we might exceed our luggage limit, but who knows I'll wait until we get to the airport to decide what else to chuck out.

The taxi is coming at 6pm for us so by 4pm we are nearly done.  It's showers then an ice cold beer to wash away the work.

The skies are looking gloomy now as it's about to pour with rain but we will miss it!
