Well, we made it! From Croatia to Italy, and then to Corfu. Then we headed for the gulf of Patras, the gulf of Corinth and then through the Corinth Canal and on to Aegina. Lusty Wench is currently out of the water for another scrape of her bottom.
On our way, we stopped at Galaxidhi and visited Delphi, unfortunately Sybil wasn't there that day, so no fortune telling. It is an incredible site with all the massive temple remains and a huge theatre and stadium above that.
We also managed a trip up to the fort at Navpaktos, where the view down to the medieval port and modern (huge) suspension bridge are impressive in a different way to Delphi.
The Corinth Canal can manage to take cruise ships up to 25m wide - you wouldn't think so! Lusty Wench being only 4m wide had no problem. At a cost of 226 Euros for 3 miles it is the most expensive canal we can go through! Stunning to do so though.
