Lipso, Kalimnos, Kos to Symi ...all islands leading to TURKEY!!!

The weather wasn't so good for a few days but as always if eventually changed in our favor and we we were off again, this time to Lipso. Sometimes we never know were we might end up. Today was one of those days. Joseph had a plan for a few places and depending on how we did sailing we would choose our over night stop. The weather was good and the sail was great. Below are the three of us in Lipso.

  
We had a great meal that night... and cheep, a big plus in Joseph's book. The following day we headed to Kalimnos a large island. The weather was great and we had another good day. It was a quick stay and we were gone again the next day. I did not take any picture because i must confess I did not get out of bed when we left the port. It was too cold and Joseph let me have the morning off!
We headed to Kos... at the entrance we were met by the Greek navy!
Next morning we walked around town. We had seen a castle at the entrance and decided this could be a good distraction during our morning walk!

 
From the top of the castle we watched a very large motor yacht leave. It was impressive to see the control they have over the boat and it helped that the crew were cute! All blonde haired Brits!
The anchor did not set in so we had to move and we ended up mooring beside a Dutch couple. 
Mr Q and fiance Karien on their boat after a great night of food and drinking... we weren't sure they would make it out of bed :)
  
We headed for Symi knowing the weather window was closing.We have to make it to Turkey!
Winter hats...uhhggg!
Entering the main harbor of Symi town... quite the picture ! 
Been  meaning to take a picture of this for a while. Notice the lack of a child seat :)
