                        Recent Adventures - August & September 2011

                  On Tuesday, we sailed to the island of Kimolos, an off-the-beaten-path island.

                                                        There is so much natural beauty at each and every island.

                                 We loved the sugar-cube houses and bright colors; walking around is so much fun.


   
KIMOLOS5  We rode a bus to the village of Chora, & met up with Dan & Michelle.

                                                        Chora is a quaint village with winding paved foot paths.

                                   This village was special in that it is a non-tourist fishing village and it had a terrific bakery!

                                Once we got our bearings (to the bakery) it was easy to get around.  Dan had a rental car and drove
                                                  us down the hill to a local taverna for a fun tradional dining experience.

                                    This restaurant was really local and the server (who also did the cooking) didn't speak English. 
            The food was good, but the wine left a little to be desired; there was only one type of white wine so we ordered it, and it
                 turned out to be the infamous retsina, a wine with pine resin.  Not to our likings and it went over the ledge (subtly).

                            On the way to the next island, Kostas was kind enough to anchor at a fun swimming spot.
                            Most of us swam through the cavern in the crystal clear water; Clada did a couple of laps.
