Uh-oh the pirates are in town!! On the main quay in Zakynthos before a massive storm. This was our first stop after Sami on our way south.

Next stop was Katakolon where we were greeted by the chap in the marine office with a drink of drambuie in a plastic throwaway cup. This was a clipper ship in the harbour just arrived from Venice. 

From Katakolon to Pylos. This is a plane tree in Pylos square that is 130 years old 

Early morning sail

Sunrise on the islands outside Pylos

Round the south past Methoni. A beautiful sail  round the first leg of the Peloponnese

Calmer waters after a very rolly confused sea below Pylos 

Into Kalamata (where the black olives come from) to await Steve's arrival. He is flying back out to join us on the journey to Crete. Dave and I spent much of the day repairing the main sail - a neat bit of stitching!

Railway Park in Kalamata - no information or anything but about 8 old steam engines that children ( and adults) can climb on and look at.
