On the Hard Again

We stopped in to the office about 8 to see when we would be hauled (3 rd attempt) The yard had finally decided we would be number 2 so we hurried to get offshore to clear the holding tanks and had only a few minutes to wait before being picked out if the water. Brian dismantled the damaged port rub rail and determined the wood strip needs replacing due to rot. Brian went to talk to an English engineer about a replacement piece while Rene went with the Greek apartment owner to check the place out. It was perfect and also 30E per night. We filled the afternoon with misc. projects and by 6:30 we were nearly pooched. We dropped off the sheets and towels at a laundry, picked up some groceries and headed to our new digs on the outskirts of town. A bit out of the way but certainly quiet and quite pretty (if you ignore the slime green pool). I think we are the only ones here.
A dinner of leftovers and finally catching up on the blog.
