Soaking Up the Sun
Our last week before putting the boat “on the hard” for the winter. Soaking up the last bit of sunshine and the clearest water that made us feel like we were perched on a glass tabletop.
Season 1
Sunken City
It was surreal to be anchored just off the coast where the fascinating remnants of a sunken city lie. During our week in Epidaurus, we’d jump overboard and snorkel over to tour the submerged ruins on a daily basis. Our backyard this week has brought some phenomenal experiences. These are screenshots from our drone and …
Back to the Bronze Age
Just an hour drive from our anchorage in Epidaurus, we transported ourselves back to the Bronze Age—to 1300 BC, where there once stood a great Mycenaean palace. Remnants of the great wall remain, but it is now hemmed in by olive groves. During the Bronze Age, Mycenae was a powerful kingdom, perhaps echoed in …
Coastal Caves
Epidaurus’ beauty knows no bounds. Just a short dingy ride past the ruins and citrus groves you’ll find yourself a few caves to tuck into and explore.
Epidaurus, Seven Dazzling Days
Our anchorage off the coast of the ancient city of Epidaurus turned out to be an adventurer’s dream. We nestled Bedouin into a quiet anchorage with a view of a Roman theater off our port side and an ancient sunken city off our starboard. There were sea caves to explore along its coastline and a …
A Sunny Sail to Epidaurus
After some provisioning and playing in Poros, we’re underway and sailing over to Epidaurus to see if we can find the little remnants of a sunken city. We’ve got Kris back on deck and her skills are still fresh so we’re enjoying a sunny sail with extra working hands aboard.
Poros
Póros seems to be a town with a thousand stunning views. From high up at the clock tower, anchored in the bay, and every nook and cranny in between—a great place to start adventuring with Kris aboard.
Hatched
It’s an early Christmas aboard Bedouin as we unpacked all the stuff Kristy muled over to us from the states. Mark was especially excited to have some new hatches. His ongoing project to freshen the boat up and replace them all is underway. Miraculously, Kris packed them with such expertise that they all arrived in …
She’s Back
Look who’s back! Kris braved another long fight and came back to see us. We have officially given her the not-so-glamorous title “Bedouin Mule.” The poor girl seems to have a raw talent for expertly packing a suitcase (or two) full of miscellaneous boat parts and hauling them over to us. This time …
Pernicious Pastries
📩 Dear Mr. Boat Bakery Man, Please stop peddling your beguiling baked goods so early in the morning when my ability to refrain from them is at an all time low. Some of us are trying hard not to fat out of our swimsuits and your gluten-laden offerings are testing our will-power way too …
