Peter arrived on time to Kefalonia airport and we awaited his arrival at a new marina, Agia Pelagia, just under the flight path next to the airport. It was really cool watching the aircraft fly in and one could not help but duck as they seemed to skim across the masts. Agia Pelagia, is quiteContinue reading “Kefalonia to Cleopatra for lift out”

We were not quite finished with Kalamata and ended up spending a fourth day in the Marina so that the engineer John Vardikas could come and do the work on the engine alignment.  He had finished by lunchtime so thereafter we cycled our bikes north to the top of the town to visit the cathedralContinue reading “Kalamata to Kefalonia June 2026”

It sprung out of his luggage with muchContinue reading “Karma Noodle (and thanks to Sharron)”
