<p><p>How about waking up to the sun coming up over the mountain and the turquoise sea casting a glow from our open port. I looked down and the beautiful fish are swimming below. We are in a bay off Skorpios, Onassis' island. The island is still owned by the family and is guarded. There is a helicopter pad, a change house on the beach and we can see the roofs of homes. I try to imagine Jacquie and her children playing on the beach here. They say no-one uses it now- sad. After a delicious breakfast our captain tells us todays plans, then we pop in for a swim, batten down the hatches and sail to Formicula for lunch and a swim. In the afternoon we stop at a seaside village Little Vathi and do a bit of shopping and use the WiFi at the local cafe. Dad bought a hat with better sun coverage. The captain slows on our way out of the bay to show us a sunken airplane. The water is so clear here that you can see down over 50 feet.<br>
We sail for a few hours then stop in a small bay Port Leone on Kalomos where we will spend the evening. A swim, a lovely fish dinner (Simone is a great cook), and we spend the evening getting to know our mates. Off to bed early as we are all tired.
