Remember that game you played as a kid, “Red Light, Green Light”—the one where you ran as fast as you could until someone stopped you by shouting “Red Light!” It seems we’re playing a little game of it out here the in Med with Mother Nature. But when she shouts “Red Light” it sounds …
This little text showed up on our phones one evening while we were dry docked in the marina and still living on the boat. This isn’t our first rodeo with an indecipherable Greek text.
