IOS

we were supposed to go to santorini but upon checking the weather we noticed the forecast predicted strong force 7 winds ahead (28-33knots). after checking out the possible anchorages in santorini we quickly decided we did not want to be caught in a strong wind there with no safe place for puerto seguro. so we bought us some piece of mine and sailed to ios instead.



just like simi, this unexpected stop was a great surprise. the marina was excellent and the town amazing. we went partying to the same places i had gone to 15 years ago only to find out that the age of the crowd had not changed. we were double the age of everyone there!!! we felt quite old but nevertheless enjoyed watching them partying like silly teenagers. we felt glad to have left those years behind.


luckily we were not so old to rent an ATV and go around exploring. this was a lot of fun and allowed us to see this entire beautiful island. we had a wonderful time in ios and enjoyed the town, the marina, the excellent beaches and as always the superb food!
