Last night on Moet22

We have another crappy sleep as the swell runs in and the lines are squeaking and rattling all around us.  We are both suffering from colds and my ears are back to being blocked again.  We end up getting up early and start on the main sail.  

We must look like ameaturs  as we have to remove the sail bag a few times before we work out how everything fits together.  Considering it's pretty early we try not to make too much noise and wake up the neighbours but that is hard to achieve.  We haul up the sail and connect the reefing lines; over all a good job done and we saved a fair bit of money doing it ourselves.



I have to go with Vie from IBA to the Port Police and get our log booked stamped.  Well what a kerfuffle. Seems the Port Police at Messalonghi have not processed our bonding correctly and they are telling me I owe 1500 Euros in back taxes.  

Anyway for now we don't have to pay.  As the law changes all the time everyone has a different interpretation of the process for non EU boats.  We should have received a new transit log book every time we checked out of Messalonghi. 

We finalse the cleaning inside and out and are ready to depart for Levkas around 3pm.  We say a sad goodbye to Moet22 as we will miss her.
But I  have already found my new yacht! 

We taxi it to Levkas and are booked into the Levkas Hotel right near the harbour and close to all of our favouite cafes and bars.  This is the view from our room.


We head over to the Karma Bar to watch the Practice 2 of the Austrian F1 and then head back for a siesta.  We both have a deep sleep.

We head out for pre dinner drinks around 7pm.  First up we go back to Boschetto Bar for an ouzo then over the Daltons for a mixed grill.  We alway come here but this time the meal is very disappointing,  the meats are very over cooked and not enjoyable at all.  It is really the only bad meal we have had.

We walk around the back streets and then settle in for some people watching in the square.  All the locals are out and about.  Not one child has any technology; they are just having fun running around.
We bump into Chris the DJ from the G Spot from last year, he is now working at the bar next door so we promise to check him out later.

We go back to Karma for an espresso martini which are very good and then go for a sweet treat.  The crepes smell amazing and we share a crepe with banana and Nutella, it's yum! 

We drop by to see Chris and have a little boogy but don't last long as we are very tired.  We've both had a great night and head home for a good nights sleep hopefully.
