3RD TO 9TH JULY – We left Itea and began our journey westward through the Gulf of Corinth and the Gulf of Patras to Kefalonia to meet our friends Roy and Jackie. This was a lovely sailing area although there aren’t many ports en route. We stopped at the small island of Trezonia for a night and wish we could have stayed longer – its so quiet and beautiful. Only downside is the harbour/marina has no water or electricity services as it appears to be abandoned and so is full of long term live aboards or local boats enjoying free moorings! On the next leg we passed under the huge Rion bridge joining the north of Greece with the Peloponnese. We suspect a lot of EU money went into this bridge and when we passed we saw about 2 cars and one lorry crossing – and they still run the ferries! From our travels around Greece we think we now know where at least some of the money has gone – roads, bridges and (abandoned) marinas!
