Slow Boat back to Athens
26 September 2013 | Trizoni

We're slowly making our way back through the Corinth Canal to Athens over the next month when we'll leave the boat for the winter. We're revisiting some of the places we stopped at on the way. Trizoni was busy and vibrant when we were here at the beginning of July. Now it's like a ghost town and still no sign Patrick McGoohan!
Too windy to sail today so having a day 'at home'. I was going to bake some bread but the oven has decided to stop working so I've ended up cooking it in the pressure cooker. Yes, I am a domestic Goddess! Unfortunately, as the photo shows, it has the look of a cowpat but I'm sure it will taste fantastic!
The evenings are a bit cool now so we no longer sit out in the cockpit reading. We are working our way through the Hornblower series on DVD and also Andy is on No 8 of Patrick O'Brien's 'Master and Commander' books. This seems to have affected him adversely and he is turning into Captain Jack Aubrey.... sorry, he's now Post Captain apparently. I just asked him what he wants for dinner and, apparently, I've got to find a barrel of salted honey buzzards and a turbot the size of a medium cartwheel. Hope Lidl is still open.
