The day before we were finally sailing out of Preveza for the last time, Chloe and I decided to do some provisioning. We resolved to go to Μασούτης—the farthest grocery store out of town to get a good walk in. No sooner had we stepped ashore we were beguiled by a set of Hopp …
We’re gonna miss Tina and her mama over at Taverna Mythos. This family run restaurant was one of our favorites because they became like family while we stayed for such a long time in Preveza getting some upgrades and work done on the boat. On Mother’s Day last week, mama made some funny Greek …
Our new chart plotter has arrived and Stathis, our favorite Marine Electrician, brought it over and got it all installed. Stathis warned us that this new unit has a lot of bells and whistles but just because we could now watch Netflix movies on it doesn’t mean we should. He’s probably right, that it’s …
We sailed back to Preveza one last time to get our new chart plotter installed. We brought Bedouin dockside and lashed her up for the night and Mark put the full array of our fenders out knowing there was a steady blow headed our way . The forecast showed winds would be blowing all …

Most people picture life aboard thinking it’s a fine luxury vacation sunning yourself on the bow trampolines and sailing to exotic locations. And there is some of that.

We sailed up to Parga and spent the day exploring this little seaside town that bustles with visitors. Just on the other side of the ruins that rise from the top of a parga’s hill, there’s a great bay with a beach full of sand. SAND! Sand is often a luxury here in Greece, …
We settled into one of the dozens of jaw dropping bays on Antipaxos and sent up the drone for a very hasty reconnaissance mission to check out the cave and hiking trail we saw as we sailed in. They peaked our interest so off we went in our yellow dingy to go explore the …
After a couple days climbing up to what felt like the top of the world over in Meteora, we all decided to take a circuitous route back to Preveza through the Greek town of Ioánnina. Why you ask? We didn’t go to Ioánnina for it’s famous Lake Pamvotis—which indeed was quite lovely and …
Two full days of exploring Meteora, we could have spent more. But new adventures are on the horizon. Keith & Kathy Bedouin Crew
