Crete

Sorry, this time there are more than a collective entry with a summary of the last 12 days. We went from Kassos to Sitia on Crete, all in all a long but quiet crossing. In Sitia we have located on the first night not that great, but after the second day we cross hauled to the pier, we liked it actually quite good. And that was good, because strong winds from the northwest and a light sailing pain kept us firmly on our side for a full 6 nights in Sitia, this is the longest stay we have so far indulged in somewhere on this trip.
Sitia is a relatively relaxed but also very high point-free resort with a nice beach. There are also a few locals are called, should the city does not give the impression to exist solely by or for tourism.
On Monday the 10th August Manu and Tom met us, who will be spending nearly two weeks our guests. On Wednesday the 12th August, we are then (dubbed affectionately by Tom Nicholas House) in still relatively strong wind to Agios Nikolaos drove. We spent another day and then put a stopover in Elounda, on Saturday before the 15th August went to Heraklion. This time the wind was on the West and therefore we really meet head-on mit 5 bis 6 Windstärken. Wir haben uns die ersten vier oder fünf Stunden kreuzenderweise unter Segeln vorangekämpft, bevor wir uns eingestehen mussten, dass wir bei diesem Tempo nie und nimmer vor Einbrechen der Dunkelheit in Heraklion ankommen würden. Also Möppel an, Augen zu und durch. Etwa um halb neun Abends waren wir da. Hier liegen wir jetzt im sogenannten venezianischen Hafen und warten, dass der Wind wieder etwas abschwächt oder zumindest weiter auf Nord dreht, was laut Wettervorhersage morgen der Fall sein soll.
Ich habe meinen Rückflug gebucht, am 8.September werde ich von Zakynthos aus nach Deutschland zurück fliegen. Ich freue mich sehr auf zu Hause, aber natürlich ist es auch ein komisches Gefühl, die gute to leave seamanship after such a long time.
Mark will continue the trip even longer, but for him too slowly begins way back. A few days ago we made a "for sale" sign back to the ship and there have already reported the first prospective customers. Also has the summer, although it is very hot still, most behind. It is noticeable in the evening before dark and the nights are noticeably cooler.
