Wednesday 13 March
After all our legal and business issues, and the incessant rain, we decided to get away for the night and take the boat over to Meganissey to see Pete and Ed. The forecast was okay for the afternoon and next morning, so we set off around 4ish, the sky overcast but dry, although we found hailstones on Tropi's deck from earlier.
During our short crossing the clouds started to gather, creeping along a little faster than us, so that it was a race to get into harbour.
The storm won! We moored up in lashing hailstones, a first for me, and were very glad to drip our way into a little taverna with a big wood stove.
Coming back the next day, we had a dry crossing, and saw all this snow on the mountains beyond Preveza. Dave just loved being out in the boat, however chilly, and produced this lovely grin.
