Wind and sea on our nose as we sailed south from Navplion to the Peloponnese fishing village of Tiros. Good shelter in the tiny harbour and helpful locals which was just as well as we were being blown off and away as we tried to back onto the quay. Eventually we tied up and of course the wind died after our struggle - Sod's Law :O) It's easy to spot Tiros from the water as there are three windmills on the SE cliff and the village spreads easily out across the valley. We spent the best part of the evening sitting at the waters edge drinking a few Ouzos on ice and listening to the night jars. In ancient Greece Tiros was the place to worship Apollo Tyritis - guardian of the production of milk and cheese!

And my photo looking back as we left for Spetzai Island - breakfast heat haze!
