| Sea Princess at Argostoli |
The other day, we were informed that we wouldn’t be docking at Argostoli but anchoring instead. This was disappointing, meaning John would be unable to disembark. We were due in about midday.
However, at the last moment, a cruise ship given priority over us found the weather too windy to dock, and sailed away. Meanwhile, permission was given for Sea Princess to dock, the wind having dropped somewhat.

I had booked a tour to the other side of the island of Cephalonia, but John could now disembark. Our friends Gene and Nancy had already been out, come back for lunch and invited John to go out with them, so he had a good afternoon exploring after all.

| Drogarati cave |
My tour went to Drogarati cave, to Sami (a pretty town on the other side of the island), to Mellisani Lake where we toured an open underground lake and to a lookout above a famous beach called Myrkos. The coach was not able to descend to the beach itself due to the very steep hillside. Here are some photos of the day.

ReplyDeleteYou both look so well, cruising agrees with you!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Don't know how you find the time to write this Blog Marg but I'm pleased you do! Costly Cruise ships want you to buy excursions from them. Always cheaper at the port and lots more variety. Just don't overstay your time and miss the ship disembarking. :)
Happy Birthday Marg!!!!
